SYKES, Circuit Judge.
Oleksandr Boyanivskyy, a Ukrainian by ethnicity and citizenship, sought asylum in the United States, claiming the police in Ukraine persecuted him because of his marriage to a Jewish woman. He traveled from Ukraine to Mexico, then made two failed attempts to enter the United States illegally. After his second attempt, the Immigration and Naturalization Service 1 placed him into removal (deportation) proceedings. An immigration judge held that Boyanivskyy was removable and not entitled to asylum or withholding of removal, and also not entitled to “deferral of removal”…
