World Bank Warns Staff: Avoid US Travel After Visa Revocations
Following visa revocations and deportations affecting three Colombian World Bank employees, the bank advised its Colombian staff to avoid U.S. travel. These G4 visa issues stemmed from a diplomatic dispute between the Colombian and U.S. governments concerning deportation flights. A negotiated resolution averted further sanctions, but the incident highlights potential broader disruptions for international staff amid anticipated U.S. tariff actions. The World Bank is actively working with U.S. authorities to address the situation.
