Govt: Asylum level high due to Ukrainian and Afghan refugees
The schools minister says there are "real reasons" why immigration levels remain high, including the "generous" intake of refugees from Ukraine, Hong Kong and Afghanistan, but that the government is "committed" to reducing the number of people coming into the UK.
Nick Gibb makes the comments as the UK's asylum backlog hits a new record high, with 80 percent of people waiting longer than six months for an initial decision.

The US State Department urges India to use its unique relationship with Russia to help end the Ukraine war, emphasizing respect for the UN Charter and Ukraine's sovereignty. Despite maintaining neutrality and abstaining from UN resolutions against Russia, India faces criticism from Ukraine for PM Modi's Moscow visit. India's stance reflects a complex balancing act between its historical ties with Russia.

Senator JD Vance, nominated as Donald Trump's vice-presidential running mate, opposes continued US funding for Ukraine, advocating for peace negotiations instead. Vance's criticisms of the Biden administration's handling of the Ukraine war and his belief that the conflict benefits American business have fueled tensions with Ukrainian President Zelensky. With Trump promising to end the war swiftly, their potential election victory could significantly alter US-Ukraine relations.
