Dire Human Rights Situation of Migrants in U.S.

Date: 26/09/2022 | Source: Ministry of Foreign Affairs (EN) | Read original version at source

The U.S. State Department recently issued a proposal on sheltering refugees for the 2023 fiscal year distorting the truth as if the refugees immigrating to the U.S. are enjoying “genuine freedom and democracy”.

A typical example of the dire living conditions of the immigrants in the U.S. is the fact that around 2 980 immigrants lost their lives in the America-Mexico border areas since 2014 who had yielded to the temptation of human traffickers and tried to immigrate to the country dreaming about “wealth and prosperity”.

The U.S. drives out immigrants by building a border wall and mobilizing the armed forces in the America-Mexico border areas. It has set up all sorts of asylums and detention centers to detain the refugees.

It hasn’t been long when the world was in a great outcry after a video clip showing American border patrols coercively deporting Haitian immigrants by whipping them and a document revealing miserable living conditions of immigrants were made public.

A terrible incident took place last June where sixty-odd immigrants from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and other places were suffocated to death in a large container car. This gave the international society a great shock.

After the outbreak of Covid-19 in particular, discrimination and maltreatment against Asian and African immigrants in the U.S. are becoming ever-more serious.

In New York City, an Asian woman was pushed out from a tram and died in broad daylight; in Atlantic City, a gunman shot six Asian women to death. All these incidents are only the tip of the iceberg presenting the dismal human rights situation in the U.S.

This is the miserable reality of the refugees and migrants who wish to come to the U.S. with a dream of “flamboyant life”.

In the U.S. society where white supremacy is prevalent and racial discrimination and misanthropy are rampant, human rights of immigrants can never be ensured.
