Why These Travel Bans Were Introduced
Trump’s visa restrictions apply to roughly 39 countries.
According to the White House, the move is rooted in national security.
“It is the president’s duty to take action to ensure that those seeking to enter our country will not harm the American people,” the administration previously said when announcing the measures.
Countries facing full bans include:
- Afghanistan
- Iran
- Haiti
- Syria
- Somalia
- Libya
- Individuals with documents issued by the Palestinian Authority
