Trump Issues Proclamation Banning Travel From 12 Countries
The new travel restrictions, targeting countries deemed high-risk due to insufficient vetting processes, high visa overstay rates, and inadequate information sharing, aim to prevent terrorist entry into the United States. These measures, justified by concerns about national security and exemplified by a recent attack in Colorado, are intended to enhance screening and vetting procedures. The administration asserts the restrictions are country-specific and mirror previous, successful efforts to protect the nation from foreign threats. The White House emphasized the need to prevent the type of attacks experienced in Europe from occurring within the US.
