The New York Times: 43 countries targeted with a ban or restriction of travel to America

The New York Times said on Saturday that the administration of US President Donald Trump is considering targeting citizens of up to 43 countries as part of a travel ban to the United States.

The newspaper quoted US officials familiar with the fact that the new travel ban will be broader than the restrictions imposed during Trump’s first state, noting that the new list was prepared by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and it is likely to have changes.

The draft list of recommendations indicates a red list of 11 countries that completely prevent its citizens from entering the United States.

The red list includes Afghanistan, Sudan, Syria, Yemen, Libya, Iran, Somalia, North Korea, Venezuela, Cuba and Batuan.

As for the orange list, it includes 10 countries that restrict travel to it without preventing it, and it includes Russia, Belarus, South Sudan, Sierra Leone, Eritrea, Haiti, Laus, Myanmar, Pakistan and Turkmenistan.

On January 20, the US President issued an executive order to tighten the security examination of any foreigner seeking to enter the United States, to monitor any threats to national security.

Trump has previously imposed at the beginning of his first term as a ban on travelers from 7 Muslim -majority countries (Syria, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen and Iran) on the pretext of protecting Americans from terrorism, a policy that sparked condemnation at home and abroad, and was subjected to a lot of taking and responding, before the Supreme Court supported it in 2018.
