The US Supreme Court has decided to review President Donald Trump's executive order to abolish the right to citizenship from birth.

Several lower courts have blocked Trump's attempt to introduce restrictions on the law that states that everyone born on American soil automatically becomes a citizen of the United States. The blocking has been done on the grounds that it violates the Constitution.

The purpose of Trump's decree is to prevent newborn children of parents who are not legally residing in the United States from becoming American citizens.

The negotiations in the Supreme Court are expected to begin next year, with a decision in June.
