US EditionTrump's Travel Ban: New Proclamation Shakes Global Travel
- President Donald Trump signed a proclamation on June 4, 2025, banning entry of nationals from 12 countries into the United States starting June 9, based on national security concerns.
- This travel ban followed a terror attack in Boulder, Colorado, which Trump cited as evidence of risks posed by poorly vetted foreign nationals and visa overstayers.
- The countries subject to the ban, many located across regions including parts of Africa and the Middle East, exhibit high rates of visa overstays, often lack stable governments capable of properly vetting travelers, and have connections to terrorism or support for terrorist organizations.
- Trump emphasized his responsibility as President to safeguard the safety and core interests of the United States and its citizens, while Amnesty International condemned the travel ban as unfair and inhumane.
- The ban mirrors Trump's 2017 policy revoked by Biden and exempts legal permanent residents, certain visa holders, and persecuted minorities but has drawn criticism and reciprocal visa restrictions from affected countries.
