EU citizens

EU citizens living in the UK say they have been left in legal limbo after the UK government stripped some people of their post-Brexit residency status under the EU Settlement Scheme. Affected residents, who say they followed all the rules, describe losing proof of their right to live and work in Britain, raising concerns among EU nationals and rights groups about errors and safeguards in the scheme.

Belarus has taken its criticism of the European Union's defence policies to the United Nations, asking bluntly whether Europeans want to be 'cannon fodder by 2030'. The rhetoric targets the EU's military build-up and support for Ukraine, framing it as dragging European citizens toward war. The pointed framing reflects Minsk's broader effort to align itself with Moscow's narrative against Western rearmament.

EU citizens living in the UK report having their settled status withdrawn under the post-Brexit EU Settlement Scheme, despite following all the rules. Those affected describe being unable to work, claim benefits or travel while appealing the decisions. The Home Office says statuses can be cancelled for absences or fraud, but applicants insist they complied fully. Critics call the system's automated removals a breach of the Withdrawal Agreement's protections.
