White House adviser Stephen Miller reacted to Supreme Court decisions on immigration, saying the US is completely closed to asylum seekers and Haitian refugees who received temporary protected status should leave the country, The Economic Times<\/a> writes.<\/p>\n

The comments come as the US Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that government officials can turn away asylum seekers at the southern border with Mexico if they have not yet set foot on US soil. The ruling on Thursday clears the way for the administration of President Donald Trump to revive a controversial policy known as “metering”, in which immigration agents physically block those seeking asylum from crossing the border, Al Jazeera reported.<\/p>\n

Miller, while speaking to reporters, as quoted by PBS News, said that Haiti is a safe country for Haitians and some pockets of the country may have high crime rates, just as the US has in Chicago.<\/p>\n

“Well, I think the most important point is that this administration, on the asylum point, has now implemented international agreements all over the world to take in our asylum seekers. So America’s doors are closed fully to asylum seekers. We’ve set up agreements where if you want asylum, then we will find a country elsewhere in the world for you to go,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
