President Donald Trump has reinstated a travel ban policy affecting citizens from twelve countries, including Afghanistan and Iran, aiming to bolster national security. The decision follows a report focusing on whether individuals from these nations pose a security threat. The new ban recalls previous travel restrictions from 2017, which faced legal challenges and public protests but was eventually upheld by the Supreme Court. The recent measures are seen as a continuation of Trump's administration's focus on immigration and national security, portraying the need for heightened scrutiny of potential visitors from specific countries.
President Trump emphasized the necessity of the travel ban as a protective measure for the United States, stating, "I must act to protect the national security and national interest of the United States and its people."
The travel ban reflects a response to perceived hostile attitudes towards the U.S. from certain nations and follows an extensive review by government departments on national security risks.
