US EditionAP PHOTOS: Trump’s Expanded Travel Ban
- U.S. President Donald Trump issued a travel ban on June 5, 2025, targeting citizens from twelve countries, primarily in Africa and the Middle East, with partial restrictions on seven more nations.
- The ban followed incidents like a Colorado attack allegedly by an Egyptian national and concerns over visa overstays, passport competence, and terrorism linked to these countries.
- The affected countries face accusations including high visa overstay rates—for example, Chad’s 49.54% rate in 2023—and failure to cooperate on deportations and security risks.
- Trump stated, "We’re doing this to protect American lives," and described some countries as sources of "significant terrorism around the world" and lacking cooperation with U.S. Security efforts.
- The ban renewed controversy and drew criticism from Democrats and foreign officials, who said it isolates the U.S. And unfairly targets entire populations based on government disagreements.
