Thousands of migrants who entered the US during the Biden administration and used a special app to arrange asylum appointments are being told to leave "immediately".The roughly 900,000 migrants who entered at the southern border using the app, CBP One, were generally allowed to remain in the US for two years and given "parole" from immigration laws to work in the country legally.Now, many of them are being informed that their paroles are revoked and that they are subject to prosecution if they remain in the US.President Donald Trump has long promised to increase deportations from the US. His administration recently renamed the app to CBP Home and is using it for "self-deportations". Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The U.S. is set to impose 17% tariffs on imports from Israel, effective Wednesday. Other nations, too, are scrambling to try to reverse Mr. Trump's tariffs.Netanyahu said he told Mr. Trump that Israel would soon address his country's trade deficit with the U.S."I can tell you that I said to the president, a very simple thing — we will eliminate the trade deficit with the United States," Netanyahu said.

Giorgia Meloni is gearing up for her highly anticipated bilateral meeting with former US President Donald Trump on April 16, with Italy hoping to reduce "reciprocal" tariffs that are currently in place between the EU and the US.Although no formal mandate has been given, there are growing expectations from the European Commission that the meeting will result in a positive outcome, with Meloni positioned as a key intermediary in facilitating dialogue between the two powers, Caliber.Az reports via Italian media.The proposal on the table is to return to zero tariffs—a suggestion likely to be dismissed by Trump for the time being. However, the more attainable goal is to negotiate a 10% reduction in tariffs for both sides.The Italian government is optimistic that Meloni’s established rapport with Trump could prove crucial in the negotiations, as she is the only European leader with a close relationship to the US President.Recent discussions between EU Trade Commissioner Maroš Šefčovič and US counterpart Howard Lutnick were described as "mostly positive, but inconclusive." Šefčovič has publicly expressed hope that leaders with strong ties to the US will help facilitate the process. Meloni's upcoming talks with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen may further align the EU’s strategy ahead of the Washington summit. Hosted on Acast.

In March, Pakistan’s Interior Ministry reiterated its directive for all "illegal foreigners" and Afghan Citizen Card holders to leave the country by March 31, warning that deportations commenced from April 1. Islamabad has in the past blamed militant attacks and crimes on Afghan citizens, who form the largest portion of migrants in the country. Kabul has rejected the accusations. Thousands of Afghan refugees continued to stream across the Torkham border on Monday (April 7) after Pakistan intensified its deportation campaign, forcing undocumented Afghans to leave the country many of whom had lived there for decades. With belongings packed, one of the Aghani Lal Saeed said he left a loaded car waiting outside and rushed to the prison, hoping for one last chance to bring his sons with him. Pakistan launched its repatriation drive of foreign citizens, most of whom are Afghan, in 2023, but had said they were first focusing on foreigners with no legal documentation. More than 800,000 Afghans hold an Afghan Citizen Card in Pakistan, according to U.N. data. Another roughly 1.3 million are formally registered with the Pakistan government and hold a separate Proof of Residence card.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

US President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs risk triggering a large “negative demand shock” in the Eurozone, a senior European Central Bank policymaker said as the ECB weighs an interest rate decision later this month.In an interview with the Financial Times, Greece’s central bank governor Yannis Stournaras warned that the looming global trade war was likely to weigh heavily on Europe’s economic growth. “A notable adverse impact on growth could lead to activity being much weaker than expected, dragging inflation below our targets,” he said.One of the longest-sitting members on the ECB’s governing council, Stournaras warned that the euro area was facing the shock just when the outlook for growth was already “modest” and inflation was on track to meet the ECB’s medium-term target of 2 per cent.

Listen to this storyTHE PREMIERE on February 28th of a new staging of “Macbeth” in Kyiv was initially eclipsed by the diplomatic disaster the same day between Volodymyr Zelensky and Donald Trump in the White House. The production has since become the talk of the city’s elite. Ivan Urivsky, the director, says he decided to put on the tragedy after sensing a change in the country’s mood since Mr Trump’s election: “You can’t do theatre without thinking about politics, war or the people watching.” His viewers are drawing parallels between Shakespeare’s characters and current events. For some, Macbeth resembles the bloodthirsty dictator in Moscow. For others the story of ambition, power and treachery feels closer to home.In Kyiv, daggers are being sharpened around Mr Zelensky. For months the Ukrainian president has faced intense pressure from Vladimir Putin, who questioned his legitimacy without a hint of irony, and from Mr Trump, who has repeated Mr Putin’s talking-points. They pushed Mr Zelensky to hold elections in the middle of the war, believing no doubt that Ukrainian voters would do them the favour of unseating him. Two months ago he was believed to be dead-set against a vote. But Mr Trump’s treatment of him in early March has bolstered his ratings and appears to have changed his calculus. Preparations are under way for Mr Zelensky to face the electorate for a second time, and soon. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Apple has only gradually increased the price of iPhone models, but this could change in the coming months. U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a hefty tariff on imports from various countries, effective April 9. The tariffs will have a direct impact on Apple's performance and the products it will sell in the region, as most of the iPhones and other products are assembled in China, and these could adhere to a massive 54 percent tariff.Apple could increase the price of its iPhone models by 43 percent following Trump's new tariff plansAccording to estimations by analysts at equity research from Rosenblatt Securities (via Reuters), iPhone prices in the United States could be increased by up to 43 percent due to the latest tariff imposition. The current top-of-the-line iPhone 16 Pro Max can be bought for a massive $1,599, and if the estimations have any heft, the tariffs could increase the price of the same device to almost $2,300 in the U.S. This is only applicable if the company does go ahead with a price hike to offset the tariffs.

President Donald Trump on Wednesday launched a US trade war with every country via a barrage of tariffs that are set to go into effect almost immediately. American consumers and businesses stand to pay a hefty price for that battle.For the first time since Trump’s return to the Oval Office, it’s not a question of what could get more expensive due to tariffs but rather a matter of when. And the short answer to what could get expensive is, well, everything.Assuming Trump proceeds with the plans he laid out on Wednesday — and he has said there is no room for negotiation — only certain goods from Mexico and Canada have a shot at avoiding any tariffs. Otherwise, all countries’ goods will be subject to a minimum 10% tariff, with rates going much higher for 60 countries the administration deems the “worst offenders” in terms of trade barriers.At the very top of that list is China. Come April 9, the US will impose a 54% tariff on nearly everything coming from China. And rates go even higher, to 79%, if Trump follows through with his promise to slap an additional 25% tariff on any nation that buys oil from Venezuela, which China has done. Hosted on Acast.

Former President Yoon Suk Yeol issued his first official message shortly after the Constitutional Court unanimously ruled to remove him from office Friday, bringing an end to his controversial presidency and the monthslong political crisis sparked by his declaration of martial law last December.In a brief and solemn statement addressed to the public, Yoon expressed both gratitude and regret."It was a great honor to serve the Republic of Korea," Yoon said."I am deeply thankful to those who supported and believed in me, despite my shortcomings. I sincerely apologize for failing to meet your expectations. I will always pray for the Republic of Korea, which I love, and for its people."The message, written in a personal tone and signed "Sincerely, Yoon Suk Yeol," was released just hours after the Constitutional Court delivered its historic verdict. It found Yoon had committed a "grave violation of democratic norms and the rule of law" by abruptly declaring martial law on Dec. 3 — a move that plunged the country into weeks of nationwide protests and political turmoil.The unanimous decision by all eight justices marks only the second time in South Korea’s constitutional history that a sitting president has been removed from office. The ruling is final and cannot be appealed.While Yoon did not directly reference the court's decision or its reasoning in his statement, his message conveyed a tone of acceptance rather than defiance, signaling an end — at least publicly — to his presidency that lasted just under three years.It remains unclear whether Yoon will issue a more detailed response or speak publicly about the ruling in the coming days.
