Here's a look at what's involved with the refugee ban: What's the difference between immigrants and refugees? Immigrants are people from other countries who come to the United States for a variety of personal reasons, such as seeking a better life than in their native countries. Refugees are a special class of immigrants who seek asylum from war, persecution and other risks to their safety. They have protected status under international law. Who are the refugees admitted to the U.S. in 2016? Most of the 85,000 refugees admitted in 2016 came from countries that are at war or under the control of repressive governments. Top admissions from Africa came from the war-torn Democratic Republic of Congo (16,370) and Somalia (9,020). From East Asia, most came from Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, (12,347). The greatest number of Europeans came from Ukraine (2,543), which is at war with Russian-backed irregular troops in the east.
