Trump Welcomes to 'White' Refugees After Harsh U.S Immigration Crackdown – Media Cries 'Hypocrisy'

U.S President Donald Trump has made headlines once again, this time offering asylum to white South African refugees fleeing what he calls “genocide.” But the move has sparked outrage and raised questions about hypocrisy as Trump continues his tough stance on immigration, particularly toward Black and Hispanic migrants. As the media focuses on the controversial land expropriation in South Africa, many are now calling out the double standard in U.S. immigration policy. #Trump #WhiteRefugees #SouthAfrica #ImmigrationHypocrisy #USAsylum #WhiteGenocide #MediaBias #Trump2025 #LandSeizure #BlackImmigration #USPolitics #ImmigrationPolicy #AsylumSeekers Also Read Cyril Ramaphosa Extends Condolences on the Passing of Pope Francis at Age 88 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/south-african-president-ramaphosa-condolences-pope-francis-passing-011-4130473.html?ref=DMDesc South Africa Looks to Strengthen Trade Relations with India and China Amidst US Tariff Challenges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/south-africa-increases-trade-india-china-us-tariffs-011-4117633.html?ref=DMDesc South Africa Issues Warning on Human Trafficking After 23 Citizens Rescued from Myanmar :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/south-africa-cautions-citizens-human-trafficking-myanmar-011-4109177.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~ED.102~HT.336~

Farage: Reform UK enjoyed PM's 'island of migrants' speech

Nigel Farage says Reform UK "very much enjoyed" Sir Keir Starmer's remarks on immigration and an 'island of migrants', which critics have likened to Enoch Powell's 'Rivers of Blood' speech in 1968. Reform's party leader urges the prime minister to declare the situation in the English Channel as a national security emergency. Starmer replies that the government's borders bill will allow law enforcement to take action "before crimes are committed", adding it is "extraordinary" that Farage "of all people, voted against it".

Papal Conclave: Macron Accused of Meddling in Papal Conclave to Push French Cardinal for Next Pope?

French President Emmanuel Macron is under scrutiny for allegedly trying to sway the upcoming papal conclave in favor of French cardinal Jean-Marc Aveline. Conservative Italian outlets claim Macron met with key Vatican figures to boost Aveline’s candidacy. While some label it a diplomatic power play to restore influence with the Holy See, others dismiss it as rumor. The conclave, set for May 7, will see 135 cardinals vote to elect Pope Francis’ successor. The Elysee and Catholic groups deny interference, but suspicion continues to swirl in Rome and beyond. #Macron #PapalConclave #PopeElection #Vatican #JeanMarcAveline #CatholicChurch #PopeFrancis #France #Italy #HolySee #SantEgidio #VaticanPolitics #Conclave2025 #Cardinals #PapalSuccession #PopeNews #Rome #MacronScandal #ChurchInfluence #WorldNews Also Read Pope finds compatible clergy in Global South :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pope-finds-compatible-clergy-in-global-south-3453599.html?ref=DMDesc With a confluence of two events under one roof, India to host over 50 political, economic leaders :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/with-a-confluence-of-two-events-under-one-roof-india-to-host-over-50-political-economic-leaders-3430539.html?ref=DMDesc IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to inaugurate 3rd edition of NIC Tech Conclave in New Delhi :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/it-minister-ashwini-vaishnaw-to-inaugurate-3rd-edition-of-nic-tech-conclave-in-new-delhi-3378452.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.346~GR.121~

‘Kiev has no capacity...’ | Macron STUNS Ukraine with a brutal assessment

French President Emmanuel Macron has delivered a stark assessment of the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war, stating bluntly that Ukraine cannot retake territories already lost to Russia. Acknowledging that even Ukrainian authorities are aware of this, Macron emphasized the need for a united international effort to support Ukraine—without escalating into World War III. Calling for peace, he said Ukraine must be positioned strongly for negotiations and confirmed that Ukraine will not be joining NATO. Instead, Macron proposed a deployment of reassurance forces by willing allies, stationed far from the frontlines. The comments come ahead of planned peace talks in Istanbul, which remain deadlocked over Ukraine’s refusal to give up its territorial claims, including Crimea. #Macron #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #France #PeaceTalks #UkraineCrisis #Crimea #WorldWar3 #Geopolitics #MacronStatement #UkraineRussiaWar #BreakingNews #FranceForeignPolicy #NATO #Peacekeeping #Ceasefire #MacronOnUkraine #UkraineUpdate #GlobalSecurity #RussiaWarning #IstanbulTalks #UkraineTerritories #MacronSpeech #MilitarySupport #UkraineAllies #UkraineNegotiations #UkraineNews #RussiaUkrainePeace #SolidarityWithUkraine #UkraineNotInNATO Also Read Russia Marks 80th Anniversary of Nazi Germany's Defeat with Grand Victory Day Parade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/victory-day-parade-russia-80th-anniversary-defeat-nazi-germany-011-4148945.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Army Gets Russia-Made Igla-S Missiles :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indian-army-gets-russia-made-igla-s-missiles-4143017.html?ref=DMDesc Pahalgam Attack: Scared Pakistan Seeks China, Russia's Intervention For Investigation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pahalgam-attack-scared-pakistan-seeks-china-russias-intervention-for-investigation-4136899.html?ref=DMDesc
