The U.S. will take in up to 100,000 refugees through the new program called “Uniting for Ukraine.” Few details have been released, but it’s only open to those fleeing the war in Ukraine, not refugees from elsewhere. Refugees must first undergo background checks and Covid requirements. Ukrainian refugees must have U.S sponsors to allow them to apply for the program.

If this is not a racist policy, I do not know what it is. We rejected virtually everyone from South American countries.
USA 100% guilty, but take only 1% of the refugees
Refugees status its a biggest mistake ever.

We're full.
American fake democrats are godless and unintelligent people. But you can't take everything for granted in your Ukraine, just as you can't betray those or those Russians who fought for your (their) land or defended against Hitler's army. So you say you don't care? But then you were not born after Hitler came to power. Are rich people all over the world better off? But they can buy lands and countries as they see fit. However, in the eyes of Slavs and Russians, this "global business" is unacceptable, because our soldiers and people died for us in WWII and other wars, and no one knows how the rich people accumulate money. Perhaps with the help of modern slavery. And in any case, the aim of protecting one's land should be to prevent greedy people from coming to our Russian land. A corrupt Ukrainian government cannot represent the people of Ukraine. And if someone calls Putin a dictator because his views are righteous, that's no good. The West has blundered into orthodoxy. And calling Easterners dictators is wrong. Tyrants and dictators mostly live in the West. And it all starts with ordinary people. To be global does not mean to adapt something from others. It also does not mean being global. It means to understand other cultures, not mock them, etc. If you bully Russians or Slavs, then you know it's bad, don't you? They think you are not right. You blame or accuse others, That's why they hit you. Moreover, Ukraine does not belong in America. It's called geographical understanding. In fact, Kyiv starts in Russia. And this is called history. And ignorance of that can get you into trouble. Now, look at the corrupt "modern and classy people or hard-polished for Wikipedia book, or missed no sauna session, etc. " in the Ukrainian government. How much corruption did it take to wear their designer clothes and designer bags? And we in America have to pay taxes to support the middle class and the corrupt Ukrainian class? You try to wake up at 4 am and work all day for a few dollars in harsh conditions, etc. So that other culprits rob our taxes, etc. This is not going to happen. You do not know anything about us. You just use the US for this and that. You have no respect for people and now you are in trouble.
We need to start taking our own Press with a pinch of salt. Do you really think Vladimir Putani can't see the Western News?… That he lives in a vacuum, where he only receives information from his advisors?… Yet his own "People", in Moscow and St.P. can download all their favourite Anglo/American TV shows via VPN? Who needs to open their eyes and wake up? Us or them?
The sleeper must awaken.
Putani knows exactly what is going on and so do many, many Russians civilians. What the Civilised West (and its Press) needs to stop "lying" or "wishfully" thinking about, is this fact.
We, the Civilised West, want to believe that WE have a problem with ONE crazy individual in Moscow (power carzy, Alzheimers, Parkinsons, etc… we don't want to even examine the concept that WE might be at war with this diminutive poison dwarf, his generals AND the RUSSIAN PEOPLE in GENERAL (who in the vast majority back a "Neo Soviet Union").
It's the Civilised West who REALLY needs to open its eyes and remember our shared history with Russia. You don't need to be a rocket scientist… just pick up a History book.
The Sleeper must awaken.
"Cooler heads" might prevail in the Civilised West… but there are, very, VERY few "cooler heads" in Moscow right now. And, as for the majority of the Russian People… whatever "press pulp" their beloved government gives them is just fine.
"The Soviet understands one language. And one language only"…
How many ukrainian people can host (declare) 1 US person ?
If someone can help with sponsorship letter. Write me plz, I am from Ukraine. Try to get to USA to my friend but he not citizen. I don't need financial help or home. Just letter
We opened the website and we found that to be a sponsor you need to make around 40k per 1 refugee after your own expense which makes this program almost unreachable for regular not wealthy Americans
More white people is what the US needs, no more globalist agenda!
They should be allowed citizenship this is ridiculous
Justice for white refugees! Why did Biden fly in Afghanistan refugees house them, but made the Ukrainian refugees pay their way and make them wait out in the rain in Mexico? Also, Europe and the U.S. allowed millions of Middle- Eastern, African, & Latin in since 2010 but not 1 Ukrainian or Crimean refugee in 2014 when Adolf Putin invaded Ukraine and Crimea?!
Preference for darker skin refugees? Only 100, 000 Ukrainian refugees in BUT millions of Middle Eastern, Latin, and African!
I would support a family if I knew where to apply.
there are MILLIONS Displaced!! 100k makes a difference to many but, if we are to accept more people, the process will just get clogged and some refugees will be forced to wait, while still living in danger. i wish we could still do the "Ellis Island" thing.. of course, a New kind of Island facility. ships can be parked off coast with cabins to accomodate refugees, while they process. we could even round up a few super yachts, maybe!😉
I defend russia not the ukraine dont support loosers dont support the ukraine
IM NOT GOING TO SPONSOR ANY OF THESE PEOPLE……
Good job,may God bless America.
Ukraine refugee will have aa better life in US… Good job !
Thought they needed ammo; not a ride.

Azov nazi brutal to ukraina people
Людям, убивающим других людей, не следует аплодировать. https://youtu.be/DvjfFrDHW-g
Many of Ukrainian citizens already wanted to leave Ukraine long before the war, so they're better prepared for it, and it's really better for Ukrainians, especially, for vulnerable people, to stay far away from the awful war and from the inhumane Russian occupation.
God bless Ukraine 🇺🇦🇪🇺 God bless all immigrants around the world 🙏🏻 Russia and its militaries will be brutally punished for everything. I was born in Russia, I'm half-Russian and I left Russia for the EU in 2018.
Just like Karen Blake, below, I'm trying to find a link so I can apply to sponsor my fiancee and possibly her mother as well. I see nothing whatsoever about this program on the DHS website. I called the primary DHS contact number from the website, and spoke with "Operator 23", who told me to Google a form called I-821, but when I found it, it seemed to be a form for the foreigners to fill out, not something for the sponsors to fill out. I think this program has not gone live as claimed. Perhaps someone here knows what to do or where to go?
It’s programm for people, who have relatives in USA
Surprised at the negativity. Educate yourself before commenting. If you file the application you are a sponsor, meaning you are on the hook financially, that is not a burden on the US. Additionally most of the Ukrainians will not want to stay here, but return to their country.
Or say no hablas ingles and cross the boarder. . bypassing the visa..
sponsors
The opening of streamlined humanitarian parole is hopeful news, but prospective beneficiaries and sponsors must be prepared for a potentially lengthy application process and the possibility of stringent eligibility criteria. There is likely to be a surge of applications when the Uniting for Ukraine web portal is unveiled on April 25, which could cause technical problems.
How is this gonna help?
Russian spies will infiltrate America through this nexus
NO MORE REFUGEES. Even if they are white.
Could have done two months ago instead of wasting money on ammunitions.For this I am glad for you Americans💐
It's the 25th and no link at the DHS site for Uniting for Ukraine. Anyone know where/when this application will be available????
Discrimination going on at the border
Most men are not aloud to leave Ukraine they must stay and fight unlike the thugs coming from south of the border,these are also educated people most speak English,also Ukrainians want to go back to there home after the war ends unlike the other thugs ,if the other thugs would follow Ukrainians example maybe they could make there country as great as the USA ,and then Disneyland could move down south of the border and build an amusement park 😂
Instead of displacing native Ukrainians from their home country, why doesnt the President of the U.S and NATO Leaders have talks with the President of Russia and open a dialogue for immediate Negotiations?? This would end the hostilities in Ukraine now and allow all these Ukrainians to go back to their homeland instead of fleeing as Refugees? Why hasn't President Biden and NATO agree to open a dialogue with President Putin insteading of sending millions of dollars of weapons to Ukraine????
Why aren’t those men back home fighting? Shouldn’t be allowed in.
Why are people fighting in Ukraine when Putin is in Russia? STOP THE WAR.
Why do Americans shoot 44 other Americans each day? PUT THE GUNS DOWN.
Why are Trump's trials taking so long? JAIL TRAITOR TRUMP.
Why does America ignore 1,018,335 Covid deaths? USE MASKS & VACCINATE.
America's burden has come
☢☣ The Russian Defence Ministry held briefing on a provocation against the Russian Federation prepared by the USA and NATO with the accusation of using nuclear, biological and chemical weapons. Three scenarios are planned for the Russian Federation accusation:
▫ The first one is a ‘staged incident under a false flag’ that is the most probable. This could include a real use of chemical and biological weapons that would cause deaths among the population or staging ‘sabotages’ from Russia at the facilities of Ukraine involved in the development of components for weapons of mass destruction.
▫ The second one refers to a ‘Maximally covert use of weapons of mass destruction in small volumes’ for neutralising the will power and the capacity to resist within the fulfilment of a particular operational task. This scenario was supposed to be implemented in Azovstal.
▫ The third and the least probable one is the ‘overt use of weapons of mass destruction at a combat area’ in case of failure to succeed in using conventional armaments in the combat zone. This scenario was considered for Slavyansk and Kramatorsk that had been transformed into fortified towns.
❗ According to reliable information, on the eve of the Easter holiday, the Kiev regime is preparing provocations to discredit the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate.
❗In the area of the Odessa port "Yuzhny", the special services of Ukraine are planning a provocation with the use of toxic chemicals to accuse Russian troops of allegedly striking civilian infrastructure facilities.
