Trump Mulls Travel Ban Targeting 41 Countries – Check Full List

by aweeincm

<p>United States President Donald Trump&rsquo;s administration is considering a travel ban on people from different countries, an internal memo has revealed. A US official said that the extensive list is yet to be approved by the administration, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and that there could be changes to the list.</p>
<p>According to Reuters, the list of 41 countries has been divided into three categories: full visa suspension, partial visa suspension, and those recommended for a partial suspension if they do not address deficiencies.</p>
<p>The list echoes Trump&rsquo;s list from the first term, which banned citizens from seven majority-Muslim nations, a policy that faced multiple legal challenges before being upheld by the Supreme Court in 2018.</p>
<p>On January 20, Trump issued an executive order requiring intensified security vetting of any foreigners who sought admission to the US to detect national security threats. The order directed several cabinet members to submit a list of countries by March 21, from which travel should be partly or fully suspended because their “vetting and screening information is so deficient.”</p>
<p>Trump’s directive is part of an immigration crackdown that he launched at the start of his second term, as reported by Reuters.</p>
<h3><strong>Here is the category-wise list </strong></h3>
<h3><strong>Full visa suspension:</strong></h3>
<p>Afghanistan</p>
<p>Cuba</p>
<p>Iran</p>
<p>Libya</p>
<p>North Korea</p>
<p>Somalia</p>
<p>Sudan</p>
<p>Syria</p>
<p>Venezuela</p>
<p>Yemen</p>
<h3><strong>Partial visa suspension (tourist, student and some other visas affected):</strong></h3>
<p>Eritrea</p>
<p>Haiti</p>
<p>Laos</p>
<p>Myanmar</p>
<p>South Sudan</p>
