Fifty Ukrainians Deported From U.S. Reenter Ukraine Via Poland

Ukrainian officials are verifying the returnees' legal status following U.S. notice of removals through Poland.

Overview

  • Ukraine's State Border Service said the group crossed at the Shehyni checkpoint on the Poland–Ukraine border on Tuesday.
  • Border guards processed the arrivals for entry in accordance with Ukrainian law, according to spokesperson Andrey Demchenko.
  • Authorities stated that Ukraine accepts its citizens in all cases and that they are clarifying the circumstances that led to the expulsions.
  • Kyiv was previously informed that several of those being removed were described by U.S. authorities as stateless, officials said.
  • Ukraine's ambassador earlier told The Washington Post the U.S. planned to deport about 80 Ukrainians, a step that aligns with President Trump's tougher immigration enforcement agenda.
