Trump to Ban Travelers From 43 Countries
A new memo proposes a sweeping ban on travel to the U.S. from 43 countries, with Russia facing sharply restricted visas and Belarus facing heavy sanctions. Eleven countries, including Afghanistan and Cuba, face full visa suspensions, while ten others face partial suspensions affecting tourist and student visas. An additional 22 countries have 60 days to address alleged deficiencies or face potential restrictions. This policy echoes Trump’s previous “Muslim ban,” sparking controversy and raising concerns about its impact on international relations and human rights.
