“Today I will approve an executive order that will begin the hard work of rebuilding our refugee reception program to help the unprecedented need for this program on a global scale,” Biden said.

The American leader stressed that this executive order will allow the administration to again raise the reception of refugees in the United States to 125 thousand people in the first fiscal year of the administration.

Earlier, Biden signed three decrees on easing immigration policy, which was tightened under Donald Trump.

In addition, the US President lifted the ban on entry to the United States for citizens of a number of Muslim countries.
