Around 71 million people have been displaced by war, persecution, and other violence in their home countries, according to a new report from the United Nations that states the number is a new record. The annual “Global Trends” report counts up the number of refugees, asylum-seekers, and internally displaced people throughout the world. The number for 2018 saw an increase of nearly two million from the previous year, and a shocking 65 percent increase from a decade ago. High Commissioner Filippo Grandi unveiled the report with a swipe at President Donald Trump, saying: “In America... what we are witnessing is an identification of refugees... with people that take away jobs, that threaten our security, our values... I want to say to the U.S. administration—to the president—but also to the leaders around the world: This is damaging.”
