Trump indefinitely extends pandemic-related halt on international visas

 

Dec. 30 (UPI) President Donald Trump on Wednesday indefinitely extended a suspension of international visas in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Trump said restrictions on green cards and various types of work visas during the pandemic originally set to expire Thursday – will remain in place "until terminated by the president." "The secretary of state, the secretary of health and human services and the secretary of homeland security shall, as appropriate and as United States foreign policy interests and continuing public health risks may warrant, submit a joint recommendation for such termination," Trump said in a memorandum. Trump initially signed an order placing a hold on the issuance of new green cards in April and then expanded it to include H1-B, H-4, L and most J visas as well as some H2-B visas with an exception for food processing workers in June.

 

H-1B visas grant temporary work authorizations to people with highly specialized knowledge and are commonly utilized in the tech industry, while H-4 visas are issued to immediate family members of people who hold H-1B visas. Issuances of H-1B visas are currently capped to 85,000 annually. H-2 visas provide temporary work for agriculture, construction, forestry and other industries; L visas are for temporary intracompany transfers who serve in management positions or have specialized knowledge; and J visas are provided for study-based exchange visitor programs.

 

Joe Biden has pledged to reverse many of Trump's immigration policies, including travel bans from majority-Muslim countries and policies separating children from parents at the border. He's also vowed to reform the visa system and restore refugee admissions to their levels prior to Trump's presidency.

North Korea claims all targets reached in '80-day campaign'

 

Dec. 30 (UPI) – North Korean state media said the country has reached goals of the regime's "80-day battle" that began in October, and that the campaign has come to an end after weeks of "innovative achievements and advances." Pyongyang's state-controlled news agency KCNA reported Wednesday the 80-day labor mobilization effort that began under Kim Jong Un has reached new milestones "in each field," thereby "setting excellent conditions for the convocation of the Eighth Party Congress" in January. The 80-day battle refers to North Korea's policy of employing unpaid and often forced labor for public projects, including construction and disaster recovery. According to Workers' Party paper Rodong Sinmun and KCNA, the mass labor force took turns "working every other day" to meet the goals of the state, which included anti-epidemic measures, ongoing disaster relief and preparing farms for the next fiscal year. The Rodong reported the Eunyul Iron Mine produced twice as much metal than planned, and a potato processing plant in Taehongdan County was "overflowing" with output, surpassing expectations. North Korea is getting ready to hold its Eighth Party Congress, the country's first party congress since 2016.

 

Kim Jae Ryong, a North Korean politician who served as premier until August 2020, may have been appointed head of the Organization Administrative Department, a key department that manages domestic security, according to South Korean news service Newsis on Wednesday. The Rodong reported Tuesday that Kim, a vice chairman of the central committee of the Workers' Party, was conducting the meeting under Kim Jong Un's instructions. The North Korean report indicates Kim Jae Ryong is in charge of planning for the Party Congress, and that he is the head of the OAD, a South Korean intelligence source said, according to Newsis. Kim Jae Ryong also is relatively young and has earned the trust of the North Korean leader, said Yang Moo-jin, a South Korean analyst at the University of North Korean Studies in Seoul.
