A Congolese refugee family in Kenya, expecting resettlement to the US, faced abrupt cancellation of their flight after President Trump suspended the refugee program. This decision impacted around 120,000 refugees, contrasting with the subsequent arrival of Afrikaners who were fast-tracked for entry despite their claims of victimhood being discredited. Analysts criticize Trump’s isolationist foreign policy, which has included cuts to global aid while prioritizing select groups, leading to frustrations among those who had followed the lengthy refugee vetting process.
