DEPORTATION, TEMPORARY POLITICAL ASYLUM (WHILE IN TRANSITION), IMMIGRATION UNDER OATH TO A DIFFERENT COUNTRY

Asylum may be temporary or permanent.

An asylums is an area considered safe and has traditionally taken the form of a church or other religious institution

This is not an automatic right of an individual, nor is any state required to give it. In fact, most nations have extradition treaties with other nations, and so an individual wanted for a crime will not normally receive asylum.

Asylum is generally designed to protect individuals accused of political offenses or suffering persecution at the hands of their government, and as such would not be a threat to any nation that took them in.

Although political asylum is a positive situation for one whose life would otherwise be in danger,

to live as an exile from one's homeland is not ideal.

Thus, while the United Nations and other bodies have set standards to determine the validity of a request for asylum

they also work to protect the human rights of all people within their own nations

When all people are able to live in safety and freedom, in their homeland

there will be no more need for asylum
