The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the Trump administration can enforce a policy to turn back asylum seekers at the border. The policy, originally rescinded in 2021, allows the government to block entry without processing asylum claims. The court’s decision gives the administration greater flexibility to use this measure as a tool for border control. The ruling is a significant victory for President Trump’s immigration agenda, though critics argue it violates international asylum laws.
