Points of attention

  • Controversy surrounds the issue, with conflicting views on whether Ukrainian citizens should have their legal status preserved or revoked by the US government.

Trump may make another tough decision regarding Ukrainians

The US President continues to assure that he and his administration do not intend to harm anyone.

Against this background, he made it clear that he was determined to consider the issue of further preserving or revoking the legal status of Ukrainians in the United States who left Ukraine because of the war.

There are people who think it's right, some who think it's not, and I'll be making a decision pretty soon.

What is important to understand is that the day before, the White House spokeswoman called journalists' information that such a step was being discussed "fake."

According to insiders, an official from the Donald Trump administration said that a decision regarding the Ukrainians could be made in April.

He also added that the issue was raised even before the meeting between the US leadership and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office, which ended in a quarrel.
