A few hours ago we shared the sadness and outrage caused by the zero tolerance initiative worldwide in the United States, which separated thousands of children from their parents, after being arrested for illegally entering this country.
Now, after receiving thousands of strong and forceful criticisms, President Donald Trump has backed down, signing a decree to prevent the separation of these families, finally putting a stop to these terrible and cruel acts.
It is incredible to all of us that in the twenty-first century thousands of children were treated as criminals, separating them from their families and leaving them in cages inside detention centers. Yesterday we shared a recording that leaked, in which we could hear the children crying and asking for their parents.
Various media commented on the strong indignation that was presented, due to the lack of humanity shown by the American government and its zero tolerance policy. It was even said that the first lady Melania Trump did not fully agree and was worried about the children, hoping that a solution for this situation would soon be found.
Finally, after thousands of protests and criticisms both inside and outside the United States, and the pressure of religious, political and world leaders, President Trump signed a decree that reverses and puts an end to the separation of migrant families.
According to CNN information, Trump stated that they will keep families together and that will solve the problem, however, they will continue with their zero tolerance policy for people who enter the United States illegally.
