Former US President Donald Trump is reportedly inching closer to implementing a new travel ban, targeting two unnamed countries as part of a broader crackdown on immigration violations. The proposed measures could impact up to 15,000 individuals, with stricter enforcement to prevent visa overstays.
The ban, described as a "draconian" move by critics, aims to address concerns over visa fraud and national security. Sources suggest the policy would mirror Trump's earlier travel restrictions, which sparked global controversy during his presidency.
Key Details of the Proposed Ban
- Targets two countries not yet publicly named
- Includes stricter vetting for visa applicants
- Measures to penalize overstays more harshly
- Expected to affect thousands of travellers annually
While supporters argue the ban is necessary to protect American jobs and security, opponents warn it could strain diplomatic relations and harm legitimate travellers. The White House has yet to confirm the specifics, but insiders suggest an announcement could come within weeks.
