EU extends Ukraine protection, but military-age men barred from scheme

EU countries extend temporary protection for Ukrainians until 4 March 2028, but exclude men aged 23–60 from the program; from March 2027 temporary protection will only be available to those who have fulfilled Ukraine’s military obligations. Exemptions exist for certain groups, and those already benefiting from temporary protection remain unaffected; new rules require proof of legal exit or exemption from military service for eligibility.

"DOJ Challenges Texas in Court Over New Controversial Border Law"

The U.S. Justice Department has filed a lawsuit against Texas over a new state law that empowers police to arrest migrants for illegal entry and allows state judges to order migrants to leave the country. The federal government argues that this law, known as Senate Bill 4, violates the Supremacy Clause by infringing on the federal government's exclusive authority over immigration. The law is set to take effect in March, but faces opposition from civil rights groups and has been described as unconstitutional. This legal action escalates the ongoing conflict between Texas and the Biden administration over immigration policies and border enforcement.
