Trump restricts travel to America.
Donald Trump has signed a ban on travel to the US from 12 countries citing national security risks, according to the White House. The US president said the list could be revised if “material improvements” were made and additional countries could also be added as “threats emerge around the world”. This is the second time he has ordered a ban on travel from certain countries. He signed a similar order in 2017, during his first term in office. Trump has signed a proclamation banning travel to the US from nationals of 12 countries: Afghanistan Myanmar Chad Republic of the Congo Equatorial Guinea Eritrea Haiti Iran Libya Somalia Sudan Yemen There are an additional seven countries whose nationals face partial travel restrictions: Burundi Cuba Laos Sierra Leone Togo Turkmenistan Venezuela The ban takes effect on Monday at 12:01 a.m. GMT, a cushion that avoids the chaos that unfolded at airports nationwide when a similar measure took effect with virtually no notice eight years ago.
