SUA se pregătesc să revoce vizele a mii de solicitanţi de azil - Economica.net

The U.S. government plans to revoke business and tourist visas for many foreign nationals who applied for asylum, according to the State Department. This action targets individuals who entered the U.S. as short-term visitors but later sought permanent residency through asylum claims. The State Department emphasized that obtaining a visa for the purpose of seeking asylum constitutes fraud. Reports suggest up to 200,000 visa revocations could occur, marking a potential record. The process will be gradual, and recent statistics indicate that around 175,000 visas have already been revoked since January 2025 for various reasons, including criminal activities. President Trump has prioritized combating illegal immigration, leading to significant restrictions on legal entry as well.
