President Donald Trump has said he will likely allow Ukrainians who have fled the war with Russia to remain in the U.S., ending months of uncertainty over whether they would be forced to leave.
"I think we will, yeah, I do, I think we will," Trump said Tuesday evening from the White House in response to a question by reporters regarding whether he will allow Ukrainians to remain in the U.S. until the war ends.
"We have a lot of people that came in from Ukraine, and we're working with them," he added.
Concern over the temporary protected status (TPS) afforded to roughly 240,000 Ukrainians who fled the war to the U.S. under the government program known as Uniting for Ukraine (U4U), first implemented in April 2022, has been heightened since the first day that Trump entered office in January when he issued the executive order titled "Securing our Borders."
Eight days later, on Jan. 28, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed that the order had paused the government program, barring additional Ukrainians from entering the U.S. under those protections.
However, even as TPS remained in place for Ukrainians already stateside, concern remained high amid reports in March that the president was considering the removal of this protection status.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded to the reporting by Reuters and called it "fake news" before adding "no decision has been made at this time."
However, when asked about the reporting later that day, Trump said, "We’re certainly not looking to hurt them.
"And I’m looking at that, and there were some people that think that’s appropriate, and some people don’t, and I’ll be making a decision pretty soon," he added.

Only the women. Any Ukrainian men of military age go home.

“Only the women. Any Ukrainian men of military age go home.”
Trump, and for that matter, the European governments, are doing PUTIN a favor by not sending back the men who escaped Ukraine, who were trying to avoid the Neocon-created meat grinder there.
Forcing a split of families to carve out men from the refugees doesn’t really align with standard practice.
Those numbers aren’t going to make a difference anyway.
The U.S. always gets the runaway yellow bellies.
240,000 is a huge number.
Send Men back to fight. Their wives can be nurses or care takers.
The Children can Polish Ukie Artillery Shells.
I’ve met a few Ukrainian women. 8s and above, all of them.
We need them to counter the pink haired nose ringed freaks we seem to be pumping out these days.

Maybe if they had a decent leader they wouldn’t ‘run away’.
“I’ve met a few Ukrainian women. 8s and above, all of them.

ABSOLUTELY - and my sons knew enough to not have ANYTHING at all to do with American Woman, and thus got their wives overseas too.
The good ones fled to Russia. Putin was quite proud of them, they were willing to work. The ones that fled to other countries are dead beats wanting more handouts.
Maybe they know what Putin is made of, and don’t want to waste their lives on either.
Send them all back!
I bet we got the cream of the Ukrainian loafers, even worse than Europe who is infested with them, and the people there aren’t happy about it either.
Trump is getting more and more involved in this war when he shouldn’t be. It’s going to be part of his legacy and not in a good way.
Will we be allowed to speak English, or do we have to speak Ukrainian like they made the Russian population in Ukraine do?
