US Asks Embassies to Report Human Rights, Public Safety Impacts of Mass Migration

The State Department directed its embassies around the world on Nov. 21 to report any human rights implications and public safety impacts of mass migration, calling the movement a “human rights concern.”

“Mass migration poses an existential threat to Western civilization and undermines the stability of key American allies,” the department posted on X. “Western nations have endured crime waves, terror attacks, sexual assaults, and the displacement of communities.”

U.S. officials are also urging governments to take bold action to defend their citizens against the threats mass migration poses.

The United States will also report foreign policies that punish citizens who object to any continued influx of foreign refugees and immigrants, and others who document crimes and human rights abuses committed by people who have migrated into their countries.

“These issues have plagued citizens of Western nations for years,” the department stated.

Similar issues are prevalent in the UK as well, where reports have increased in the past few years of sexual attacks perpetrated against thousands of girls, specifically Rotherham, Oxford, and Newcastle, by grooming gangs made up of migrant men, according to the U.S. State Department.

London has also become increasingly dangerous, with crime increasing over the past decade, according to Statista.

Bridgerton actress Genevieve Chenneour shared video footage on social media on Nov. 20, claiming to have suffered a random attack again in London. She is the latest celebrity to report being a victim of crime in the city.

The 27-year-old actress broke down in tears as she shared what happened. She said she was walking down the street near Oxford Circus, heading to an audition, when a “full-grown man” looked at her and hit her. The attack caused her to hit a wall.

“I’m trying to gather myself, but I’m so shaken,” Chenneour said. “It’s so nerve-wracking for me being out in Central London now.”

Chenneour asked why there weren’t more police officers on the street and available for her to walk up to and report the incident. The attack wasn’t big enough to report to authorities and expect a response, she said.

The Nov. 20 alleged attack was the second incident reported by Chenneour. She also reported that her phone was snatched in a London coffee shop on Kensington High Street in February. Zacariah Boulares, 18, an Algerian national, was sentenced to 22 months in prison for the assault and theft counts. He had 12 previous convictions relating to 28 offenses when he admitted to stealing her phone and assaulting another customer who tried to help her, according to The London Telegraph.

The State Department also noted significant reports of sexual crimes against females in Sweden and Germany, allegedly committed by migrants.

“U.S. officials will now scrutinize policies in Western nations that give leniency to migrant crime and human rights abuses or that create two-tiered systems that prioritize migrants at the expense of their own citizens,” the department stated. “The United States stands ready to assist our allies in solving the global crisis of mass migration.”

The State Department also called on allies and governments to constructively engage with their citizens who are concerned about mass migration.
