Nearly 600,000 Venezuelans in limbo after losing temporary protected status
In 2025, the US Supreme Court provisionally authorised the Trump administration to lift Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans living in the United States. This status had allowed them to work legally and remain in the country as long as their return to Venezuela was deemed dangerous. Nearly 600,000 people now live in a state of profound legal uncertainty. FRANCE 24's Fanny Allard and Fraser Jackson report from Florida.
