WASHINGTON, USA – The United States did not participate in the International Migration Review Forum and will not support the May 8 “progress” declaration.
“The United States has persistently objected to the United Nations’ efforts to advocate and facilitate replacement immigration in the United States and across the broader West,” said the US Department of State, in a press release May 11, 2026. “ In 2017, president Trump rejected the Global Compact on Migration. The intervening years have confirmed the wisdom of that opposition. ”
Secretary of State Marco Rubio, said:
“Opening our doors to mass migration was a grave mistake that threatens the cohesion of our societies and the future of our peoples. In recent years, Americans witnessed firsthand how mass immigration laid waste to our communities: crime and chaos at the border, states of emergency in major cities, and billions of taxpayer dollars funnelled towards hotels, plane tickets, cell phones and cash cards for migrants. Much of this was driven by UN agencies and their partners, which did not just facilitate the invasion of our country, but proceeded to redistribute our own people’s wealth and resources to millions of foreigners from the worst corners of the world.”
There was nothing “safe,” “orderly,” or “regular” about any of this, the US Department of State, says. And the costs were borne primarily by working Americans forced to compete for scarce jobs, housing, and social services. The UN has little to say about them.
President Trump is focused on the interests of Americans, not foreigners or globalist bureaucrats.
“ The United States will not support a process that imposes, overtly or by stealth, guidelines, standards, or commitments that constrain the American people’s sovereign, democratic right to make decisions in the best interests of our country. Our goal is not to “manage” migration, but to foster remigration,” US Department of State, said.
