Soon after taking office in January, Mr Biden pledged to ramp up the program but then surprised allies when he opted to stick with the lower cap out of concern over bad optics, given the rising number of migrants crossing the US southern border with Mexico, US officials have said.Mr Trump steadily slashed the size of the refugee program during his term in office, and Biden officials say the cuts have made quickly raising admissions more difficult.
The allocations for the increased cap matched an earlier plan the President sent to Congress, according to a memo signed by Mr Biden. The memo said there would be 22,000 spots for refugees from Africa, 6,000 from East Asia, 4,000 from Europe and Central Asia, 5,000 from Latin America and the Caribbean, and 13,000 from South Asia. Another 12,500 unallocated spots will also be available.

Joe Biden has a ‘failing grade’ in foreign policy | Sky News AustraliaCurtin University Professor Joe Siracusa says President Joe Biden’s foreign policy is “all a failing grade”.\n\n“In foreign policy, he’s got a D-, I’ll do the foreign policy first because it's all a failing grade,” he told Sky News. \n\n“He hasn’t reassured North Korea, he’s insulted the Russians, he’s insulted the Chinese with America’s Strategic Competition Act and he hasn’t moved very far on immigration policy, so in much of his domain where he could do something he hasn’t been able to do it.\n\n“The world he inherited was dangerous and uncertain, and under Joe Biden the world is still a little dangerous and uncertain.\n\n“He hasn’t relived any of these great problems and I think he’s exacerbated them.” \n\nMr Siracusa said human rights was driving President Biden’s foreign policy.\n\n“Many Americans are committed to human rights, and Biden’s one of these guys who’s driving his foreign policy by leading it with the human rights issue which is something that’s very typical of the past, not typical of most Republicans who put human rights on the backburner,” he said.\n\n“They don’t say it's unimportant, they just don’t let it drive policy.\n\n“He’s driving the human rights issue for all its worth whether it's Ukraine or Russia or China or places like that.” Oh... and what grade did he give to Trump.... ? hahaha Hahaha -- This is his criteria... '“He hasn’t reassured North Korea, he’s insulted the Russians, he’s insulted the Chinese ...' These are America's enemies for decades... He should focus on ScoMo and leave Joe alone. Teach Scomo how to succeed as a PM.
