United Nations ‘profoundly concerned’ by US asylum restrictions | BBC News

- President Joe Biden has issued a sweeping executive order aimed at curbing record migrant arrivals at the US-Mexico border that have left him politically vulnerable in an election year.
Under the order, which took effect at midnight, officials can quickly remove migrants entering the US illegally without processing their asylum requests.
Rival Republicans say Biden has not gone far enough, while some of the president's Democratic allies - and the United Nations - have expressed concern.
A spokeswoman for the UN's refugee agency said those fearing persecution should have access to safe territory.

Passing through several safe countries to essentially "asylum shop" was never the intent.
They are opportunistic
I don’t know what you mean about Asylum shopping?
@@lindabederio4603 Your suppose to stop at the first Country you come to that is safe, not travel through numerous Countries until you reach the one who offers the most freebies!!! No wonder Europe and the West is outraged because they are all showing up to one Country in Europe like the UK, this is wrong and needs to be stopped!!! 90% who are showing up are not fleeing danger but want economic freedom and free housing, free medical/Dental and spending money for just showing up!!!
@@lindabederio4603 meaning they could have sought asylum in the countries they passed through but they didn't
The UN is trying to push the New World Order Agenda by flooding the US and causing unrest.
The US asylum process was not designed for people who are just fleeing poverty. I'm sorry if it sounds cold, but being poor is not grounds for asylum.
Yep..but a court date 7 years out along with years of disputing the verdict on tax payers dime is what they bank on now !
They are paying traffickers to get them through the boarder and paying tens of thousands to do so and the traffickers tell them the magic words to let them gain asylum which is that they are being hunted and persecuted by gangs and druglords of their town.
Actually it was. It even is written on the statue of liberty: "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore."
Give me the poor!
Exactly, we have 653,000 + homeless here and a high poverty rate so many here are in the same boat.
@@D.M.S. I agree. However, it must be done in an orderly fashion. Let's say the USA can absorb 250 thousand yearly. They have to be provided with housing, jobs, schools etc., With these numbers, is the reason they are living on the streets along with our own homeless. Also, there are thousands of poor across the world who have applied, and are waiting up to 15 years, instead of the usual three, because these unruly migrants who skip the lines.
WE DO NOT OWE THE WORLD A PLACE TO STAY!
Your name is not native to the area you live motherfuker
You kind of do since you can't stop bombing, invading, and conducting regime changes in other countries.
Right now, the US is bankrolling the IDFs massacre in Gaza, around 70% of homes in Gaza have been destroyed. Those people have no place to live, don't be mad when they come through your ports.
@sethkochi5273do you think that they wouldn't do exactly the same if they could? Think again
@@wadi5145Why would they? You just do it for resources, no other country besides Russia does this.
The UN should #!?/ off.
UN need to look at themselves we already have 10m+ undocumented in recent years
Say it: Fuck off, UN meddlers. 🖕🖕🖕
It's just another game obiden and the UN are playing together,the un facilitated this invasion with our tax dollars.wake up people.just another shell game.
Agreed
Agree
10 million economic asylum seekers is beyond enough
True. It's actually more than that.
And 3 times illegal from Mexico
Why does the United Nations not ask China to provide refugee asylum?
because China is kind of committing genocide rn???
also ever heard of "The New Collosus"?
Qatar and Saudi Arabia
Because even Chinese refugees are crossing the border!!
No one wants to emigrate to that shithole anyway.
Because the UN is a gaggle of virtue signaling hypocrites with no moral compass and no backbone
Im Canadian and I support the US. A nation needs border control. Its a must
No one wants to go to canada land of ice 🧊
So am I. And I say I want a whites only Canada. Fuk the rest. Multiculturalism doesn’t work.
European descendants claiming to be a Canadian on Natives land😂
But to Canada I understand... how else would you keep those pesky Unitedstatians from entering your country and using your health system, right?
We Support The Constitution. We Support The Truth. We Support free speech, We Support Second Amendment right to own guns, We Support Law and Order, God bless democracy and freedom America! We the people will Make America Great Again!
Economic asylum seekers are not allowed to just invade a country
And criminal and cartels from Mexico
Bullshit. These people have no right telling any country how to run their country. They want one government and they are trying to usurp power. We will run our country as fits best for us. Mind your own business. Go run your own country, leave us alone.
ZAŠTO AMERIKANCI DOLAZE U DRUGE DRŽAVE PO EVROPI ,HA
@@leptir7110 Because we're getting priced out by migrants. Duh
Why would you grant ANYONE Asylum until their claims are verified??? If they don't like it, they can go elsewhere. That's the beauty of free will.
Every Year The US grants Asylum to Chinese people trying to Escape the Communist Chinese Party in China... UN Never talks about that? why China has infiltrated the UN and controls many of its functions now.
Why they don’t stay in Mexico .. last I hear china investing money in Mexico but even Chinese doesn’t want to stay in Mexico 😂
United nation's leaders should open up thier homes and provide refugees with shelter.
No refugee is asking for a place in your home, even if they ask they know you won't let them in.
United Nations don't want them in their countries , being done to destroy USA from the Muslim leaders of the United Nations on purpose !! They are out to destroy all Christian countries ! United Nations PURE EVIL
@@terranowa2080 Our homes involve our infrastructure and where our tax money is spent. The heck they aren't.
@jentanner9418 no your house is your home. That's your private area. You are probably an immigrant your self, America is built and formed by immigrants.
They won’t.. zthey don’t let normal people to walk around their house
You don't have the right to force your way into a sovereign country
US should've thought about that before seriously screwing with the politics of nearly each sovereign nation in South and Central America.
But the US military and the CIA does? US brought that on themselves and should take responsibility.
I have the right to go anywhere I like. It’s corrupt nation restricting movement.
America created this problem.
No sympathy.
@@Skygrey2943 bot says what?
@@D.M.S. The US citizens did no such thing, yet you think forcing us to tax fund them is justice? Gtfoh and sue the Gov like a normal angry group.
It's not the UN's border.
Colonial borders
2500 a day is not a restriction
apparently it's not even going to work anyway.
@@zw9802 P R wise it’ll work on some simpletons. They’re already showing footage of a handful of Jose’s and Jesus’s get turned away back to Mexico. This is politics and imagery damage control after 16 million illegals have already gotten in.
2500 a day caps until it drops under 1500, so effectively, it’s closed until that drop
@@Eshanas this does nothing to stop illegal immigration; it will just push people over to where there is no barrier. i was never in favor of a border wall in years past, but I think that it is going to become an absolute necessity.
@@zw9802 How else are we going to manage to keep them out? A national border barrier is essential to national security in these times.
I'm less worried about real migrants from Peru, or Ecuador, or Mexico, than those who went to Mexico from Pakistan or China in order to infiltrate into America by border hopping, instead of having to apply for a visa card, and arrive in the U.S. with documentation. Why would you want to get into the U.S. without letting anyone know who you are? Only if you are up to no good. Those who break immigration law, seek to break other laws, when they get here.
every country has the right to decide who and how many it wants to take in. the UN should just push off
Actually, not every! There are certain countries who are willing to accept foreign citizens in need... the question here was the right for Asylum and proper procedure until decision will be made, whether you having it or not.
@@rostyslavadamchuk3300 🤡🤡🤡
Countries need to take care of their own citizens. How about not having countries at all. Because the leaders don’t take care of their people due to them stealing and not taking care of their citizens.
@@katherineginn2082 удачи пережить хоть один день в таком мире.
Maybe some of those UN countries should take in these asylum seekers.
And yet Arab countries will not take in the Palestinian "refugees."
Profoundly concerned because US taxpayers are putting their foot down, you mean?
We pay the UN the most tell them stfu or come do it yourself
The US must leave the UN. It’s become ridiculous.
Course the people who don’t live here or pay for it are concerned. Too bad we are tired of funding the world.
if you really think thats where your tax money is going to then you are truly lost
it is lining the pockets of your kingmakers, not the poor and hungry your country was built upon
You should stop taking from it first, which is why so many countries are so poor and unable to political foster a healthy economy that is creating so many economically desperate people going to the country that created the situation in the first place!
@@dawuid1491 The whole Western world is full of people facing economic problems. Not all of the people are wealthy like you, the vast majority are struggling.
@@dawuid1491 how to tell everyone all you know is what the tv tells you.
@@dawuid1491 Not our job to fix their lives If you want them you take them in
Not welcomed. Stay home
And the USA is the largest donor to UN…
and this needs to change. We need to cut the U.N.'s funding completely. Same with the CFR.
A nation's only responsibility is for the welfare of its own citizens.
Part of that is being responsible for other nations. No nation can stand alone. Which is why you have allies. Alliance means shared responsibility. Get some education before spouting
And that pic doesn't suit ya
That is like saying a person is responsible for their own welfare or that of their family only. Unfortunately, that kind of thinking is what leads to so many broken homes, social and economic problems, such as bullying, homelessness, crime, inequality, poverty, and more, resulting in the miserable lives and societies we see around the world today. Absolute selfish and shallow thinking.
People like you should NEVER expect or hope for anyone's kindness or help. And give back or cancel everything you were ever given which you didn't earn or pay for. Just live for yourself and by yourself alone.
@@startrain1 "Shared Responsibility"? Nonsense. Another country doesn't pay into our government's tax system. Only American taxpayers provide the funding for their own government. We the people, should never pay the cost for "responsibilities" of another nation. Should I have to pay my neighbor's water bill? Should my neighbor pay for my phone bill, or data access bill? Hey, I've got a great idea! Why don't YOU educate yourself, before spouting rubbish, and then go fuck yourself in the process. Illogical shitbag.
The BBC's answer... let them all in
US is only $33 trillion in debt.
Maybe the UN can take these people in then. Or figure out what they are fleeing from and provide UN help.
Yes they have a big building
No more!!!!!
We don’t care!!! We are full
They can all come here,they need to claim asylum in the next country not 10 countries away,this is a joke and does nothing for us
Official asylum rule is the “next safe country.”
With all the gun violence in America we’re not that safe. 😥
The UN could be a lot more objective, advice the economic migrants, to stay home and apply, so the real asylum seekers can be fast tracked.
All countries have the right to refuse or monitor asylum seekers especially those who don’t speak the language or respect the law of the land.
Firts of all Western world must learn and Respect the people and language of Natives from America to New Zealand
TRUMP 2024
They come from a savage and obsolete culture that lets them do heinous things as if they are normal because they are normal in their shit hole countries. So they come here and completely pollute our culture with their terrible mentality.
@@silentmajority8365Force women to give birth😂
Right, because people fleeing horrendous circumstances and seeking asylum presumably have had all the resources to perfect their grasp of the English prior to leaving their home country.
Political migrant should be able to ask asylum in the FIRST safe country they encounter.
The UN only scolding the US is misplaced, they should ask the same of all non western rich countries too than. Like China, Saudi-Arabia, Qatar, etc.
Thankfully the Americans don’t give a flying F what anyone else thinks.
And no one gives two hoots about what Americans think. So deluded, you guys think the whole world evolves around you. All the best with your sinking country!
Exactly!!!
Maga is what Americans think
Why can't they "seek asylum" in one of the dozen countries they crossed through to reach our border?
Some of us do care about the rest of the world.
Stop breaking the law.
How about the UN pay for all the expenses, it is so easy to point fingers
They are paying their way to come here with our tax dollars,then we support them once here.
The USA funds the UN. The USA should stop funding the UN if the UN demands the USA to take the world' population. TRUMP 2024!
These people who are claiming Asylum are doing so in the United States. They are usually passing through 5 safe countries, they don’t claim asylum in any other safe country, they want asylum in the United States. This is incredibly unfair to the people of the USA.
We have enough, too many, coming in. So yes while I sympathize with these people I sympathize with the average American more that is paying the price.
Northern America has done more than enough in the past few years regarding the incompetent governance of several Southern American and Carrebian countries. The UN should not just encourage people to flee to richer countries when they have their own people to serve, this is abusing compassion and skipping over the hard questions.
Equality is a UN virtue: They want the WHOLE world to be equally poor & uncivilized. "F' you, UN hypocrites.
We spent far more money in the Ukraine and Israel. End ALL funding and ALL asylum. From EVERYWHERE.
@@LeaverWild Evangelical Christians will riot if support and funding is cut to Israel. Israel also has lot of influence over American politics through various Jewish organizations by funnelling funding to campaign efforts for politicians that will see things their way toward Middle East policy, unfettered access to American military technology and free money.
Incompetent governance or US intervention? An American citizen lead a team who assassinated the head of state in Haiti. The US is imposing sanctions on Cuba and Venezuela. Maybe you should stop meddling in other countries if you want to stop the waves of displaced people.
Everyone understand what the UN is all about now?
Yeah a communist tool
The United Nations has become so deadlocked that it's now effectively useless, they haven't been able to do anything significant in years due to the veto power of the main countries, it's getting to the point where Americans are wondering if it's even worth the money anymore, maybe it's time to just let it go and move on.
lol. Its that way be design.
Thats always been the case ever since the founding of the United Nations. The big problem with the UN is 1) Academic nonsense has taken of the cultural and economic areas. 2) China has infiltrated WHO, FAO, ITU, UNIDP, ICAO and states like Saudia Arabia end up on the human rights council 3) Ever since the 90s rule of law has broken down making international law meaningless due to things like the Iraq war, Libya, the bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade etc.
Made in China????
@@woden3894 There is no other country in the world that has open borders like ours. And there is no other country in the world that has as many people wanting to get in. It's not because we suffer from systemic racism as the leftist democrats would want you to believe. A Country without Borders and Laws and Order is not a Real Country!
the UN is not really ment to sort out all things .. it was set up as a precaution for main powers reaching for smaller states. ever since ww2, we have lived in longer peace than between korean war, ww1, vietnam war etc etc than we have between ww2 and to now, so the UN's existence alone have allowed everyone to hold each others neck in tow, wich is the single purpose of the whole of UN .. so dont fall into the trap of UN being useless because it certainly isnt, and if we pay some tax for some handful goons sitting around and doing nothing on the council then i dont really care because its working. besides, it doesnt even make a dent in anyones economy.
what I have been seeing is that there are too many arriving and they cannot handle it anymore
There are other countries out there. Come here legally or not. Simple questions.
A "harsh policy that passed the Senate?" Seriously...
the guy is a tool.
Asylum shopping has nowadays become a big business.
For Mexican cartels
she wants all of her village people to establish a village in USA
That's the way it works. It starts with a basic family then all the relatives start arriving...one after the other. Next thing you know, you live in a Muslim neighborhood.
We are full. I spent 2 years homeless and I still know plenty of people who can’t find housing. We need to take care of our people first then help others if we still can but it’s not our issue.
The U.S isn't full, migrants weren't responsible for your bad choices that led you to become homeless.
We’re not “full”. There are over 15 million homes sitting empty and plenty of room to densify existing cities.
@@LGrian and no one can afford them. I see homeless people literally every day in my neighborhood. Rent goes up every year but wages don’t. I know 6 people who work more than 40 hours a week and still can’t afford to do anything besides couch surf or live in hotels. Most 1br apartments are up to 1,000 a month minimum.
@@LGrian They are not "immigrants." "Migrant" means a person entering a country legally. They are "Illegal immigrants." "Illegal immigrants" are people who illegally attack other people's countries. The United States does not need immigration.

Help the world stop drug and human child trafficking. Drugs and human trafficking are our two greatest enemies. Save America right now.
When did choosing who comes into your country controversial?
5 minutes ago.
When they realised white countries are nicer than others
Well America is a little different in the fact that is was essentially founded and colonized by immigrants. It’s suppose to be the melting pot of the world. Even then, we got too many to handle and it’s getting bad.
It’s controversial only in the west. It’s common sense in the rest of the world.
Kamala is the Border Czar.
Asylum isn't a fundamental human right. We don't owe you shit.
The UN can poke off....
they can f*** off.
Any one who look for Asylum go to different country why anyone wants to come to USA or Mexico go to Iran Afghanistan Russia China far far from America 😂
Mexican itself need to go Iran .?
its not that they come its the shear amount of humans, Turkiye is the closet to the US at 4 million and the US has 10ish you can't shelter everyone at once when we already have a housing crisis. Does the UN want us to use more resources from the world to give these people a developed country standard of living? if so they can donate at anytime since we fund their existence basically
the UN actively works to screw countries up, then they want the US to take all the refugees.
Turn the huge UN building in NYC into a refugee and homeless shelter. With the UN in session.
How about if we just hand the asylum seekers coming to the US border a one way plane ticket to any other safe country besides the US. Have to admit that it would be cheaper than the $9000.00 of benefits that are handed to them the moment they arrive here.
But we’re not safe territory. National security is the priority, UN.
Why can't asylum seekers go to Canada?
Or China,or Iran or anywhere but here
Why can't they "seek asylum" in one of the dozen countries they crossed through to reach our border?
That would require a very long diversion tunnel. 😂
Are you familiar with the School of the Americas?
Nah, we'll pass. You got this :)
United Nothing
Hopefully the UK follows suit.
Looking at the comments we are all fed up in America and the uk with the current immigration policies
B.S. The majority of the world only allow people from neighbouring countries they share a border with to apply for asylum, and even than are not allowed to leave the camps on the border; with United Nations covering the cost of everything. Whereas in the West there allowed to wonder around, get free stuff and even not deported when committing heinous crimes.
Get f out. Worry about iran russia n korea cuba , sudan, egypt etc….
The US citizens have been watching the disaster in the EU with their fundamental rights immigration policy and are more concerned with the fundamental rights of legal US citizens no matter their origins.
Fix your countries.
Mind your own Business UN your not Doing a good job handling your Own over there
Stop those criminals.🎉
Why not just tell the other country to come under the sovereignty of US and let us manage the citizens and a new country, UN should rather ask the countries why their citizens are seeking asylum in other countries.
Nice thumbnail 😂
Biden should have done this when he took office, not wait until an election year. I can sympathize with the refugees but there is a limit as to how many refugees the US can take.
We didn't have that problem when he took office. He made the problem and it continues.
We don't want to give no more money are free every time enough is enough
So they pass through other countries but they "persecuted" 🤦🏾♂️ you know they could of applied for asylum in any country 🤷🏾♂️
Why doesn't the EU take them all. Yall like pointing the finger, but your just as guilty if you dont take them.
We have to be honest that continuous illegal immigration is not sustainable. The Anglosphere countries do not have unlimited resources such as housing, healthcare, food, water, jobs, etc to provide
Here in canada the country isnt recognizable.. this is way out of control..i can only imagine what the states is like
It ain’t as bad as Canada
United Nations refuses to acknowledge the huge, insurmountable problems that their principles represent 🤷
😂😂 Why on earth should the US be accepting all the poor people of the world? US is $33 trillion in debt.
Why don't asylum seekers go to russia or China... or iran
Or rich oil countries?
Chinese are highest in illegal immigrants to US😂
If they are concerned they have homes that can house 50 families a piece. Gtfo
The UN is rudderless ship drifting in rocky waters. It does not know where it is going and appears to be drifting in circles - totally lost.
I don't see a problem with countries expecting people to legally apply for asylum rather than entering illegally. America welcomes anyone who follows the laws of the land. Any country would ask the same, I think.
It is not only Haitians and Central Americans, but also Cubans and Venezuelans who have a political, social and economic crisis that is happening there in those countries. But do not emigrate to Chile or the United States, Brazil, Canada, Peru and Mexico, those countries have many problems migrating to countries like Uruguay, Paraguay, Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago, Belize, Suriname, Costa Rica and Panama. Now there is a program so that migrants, when you show up at the border between the United States and Mexico, can apply or they can take you to go to Spain, Greece, Italy and Canada between those governments.
How about fixing the countries they come from instead of being mad at America for protecting it's border?
They are lazy ..
Store these folks in your country not ours.
Poor Little UN is concerned, poor little UN is worried. What might concern the pubic is of no interest, though. Zero.
"F" the so called United Nations...............
Does the UN forget its founding principles?
What does the UN do any way?
That's what happen when people abuse the system.

Tell other countries to take "asylum seekers" who traveled halfway around the world. The US is a sovereign nation not a puppet of the UN.
America needs to leave the united nations NOW!
definitely.
Hey professor, you take in the illegal immigrants,,
'The claim for asylum must be assessed before deportation'. Absolutely. So set up an accelerated court at the border, assess, and deport. The real challenge is where to deport.
Qatar has enough money to take in millions
This aint your country, to bad so sad.🤷🏻♂️
i know a person who gets paid for each person he brings to get a $19 job without work visa, and he says his asylum reason for these 3 years will be a policman pushed him when on a bus. eanwhile he make sthem all work 6 days a week, calls them all "family"
You dont have a right to someone elses country nor do you have a right to asylum. You have a right to attempt to seek asylum.
There are hungry Americans that are struggling to survive in this country! Come here legally and stop living off of our taxes!
To little to late. Look at the UK's issues involving boat people. We have tiny towns here in TX getting thousands per day and the vast majority of them are seeking work to send money home not asylum seekers
Blame a republican that’s the spin…..
It’s not a ban it’s just slowed down!,the US is overwhelmed!,the resources running dry!
