Former Foreign Minister and Deputy Secretary General of CPN-UML Pradeep Gyawali has said that about 50,000 Nepalis in America may be affected by US President Donald Trump's policy of deporting illegal immigrants. He estimates that around 50,000 Nepalis who overstayed and traveled illegally to America may be deported.
"Trump's policy is to deport illegal immigrants, perhaps a large number of Nepalese have entered the country through overstay or illegal routes, they may be affected," he said at a press conference organized by Press Chautari in Tamghas, Gulmi, "It is estimated that the number may be around 50,000." is I see the position of returning him.'
Gyawali says that Trump's policy will cut aid to Nepal in three to four areas. The Trump administration, i.e. the Republican Party, is anti-abortion. Therefore, support related to abortion and safe motherhood is almost certain to stop. Second, the Trump administration is against climate change. In which Nepal is at a very high risk. I see that the American support will also be cut," he said.
He said that Trump's policy may also affect Nepal's business. "Nepal has got 76 items in the US market without quota, duty-free access and it is profitable even though the trade with the US is small. If there is a review, we will have a little loss," he said.
According to his assessment, even if some titles are changed in support including 14/15 billion rupees per year through USID and lump sum 50 billion rupees from MCC, it will not be big. "After all, the US also needs an international alliance," he said. Gyawali says that during Trump's reign, US-China relations will be bitter, trade war will increase and tension will increase, so it may affect Nepal. "It seems that its consequences may also fall in Nepal," he said, "in such a situation, it is necessary for Nepal to advance its balanced foreign policy more firmly."
