How a Trump travel ban on 12 countries play in US airports – patriotic

US President Donald Trump A new ban on traveling to the United States by citizens from dozens of countries on Monday entered the relative calm, because some travelers who have valid visas reported an additional audit at American airports before allowing entry.

The ban, which mainly targeted Africa and the Middle East, kicked amid increasing tension on the president’s escalating campaign Migration Enforcing. But it arrived without any immediate signs of chaos that were revealed at airports throughout the United States during the Trump’s first travel ban in 2017.

Vincent Agilar said that she was concerned on Monday, as she and her husband, both of them, were Guatemalian citizens, to three different interviews by US officials after arriving at Miami International Airport and offered tourist visas that the couple received last week.

“They asked us about our workplace, the number of children we have, if we face any problems with the law, how we will carry the cost of this travel, and the number of days that we will stay here,” said Aguar, who was visiting their son for the first time since he left Guatemala 22 years ago.

She said that they were released about an hour after their journey fell, as they received their expected family members in Florida with tears. Guatemala is not among the countries listed in the new ban or an additional travel restrictions have been marked.

The new announcement by Trump last week applies to the citizens of Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen. It also imposes increasing restrictions on people from Burundi, Cuba, Laus, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan and Venezuela outside the United States and do not hold a valid visa.

The new ban does not eliminate the visas that have been previously released to people from the listed countries, according to the directives issued on Friday for all American diplomatic tasks. However, unless the applicant does not fulfill the narrow standards for the ban on the ban, his request will be rejected starting from the two. Travelers who have previously released visas must be able to enter the United States even after the ban has become an effect.

Narhaiana Lami, a Haiti citizen working for the government of his homeland, said that it was said that he was waiting after showing his passport and his tourist rally on Monday at Miami Airport, while an American official confirmed on the phone that he was allowed to visit the family members.

Luis Hernandez, a Cuban citizen and green cards lived in the United States for three years, said he did not face any problems returning on Monday to Miami after a family at the weekend in Cuba.

Hernandez said: “They didn’t ask me anything,” Hernandez said. “I only offered my own residence card.”

During the first period of Trump, he established the executive order in a hurry requesting the refusal to enter the citizens of Islamic countries mainly chaos in many airports and other entry outlets, prompting successful legal challenges and major policy reviews.

Many immigration experts say that the new embargo is more carefully designed and appears to be designed to overcome the challenges of the court that impeded the first by focusing on the visa application process.

This time, Trump said that some countries have a “minus” examination of passports and other public documents or historically refused to restore their citizens. He relied widely on an annual report of the internal security of people who remain in the United States after their visas ended.

Trump linked the new ban with a terrorist attack in Bulder, Colorado, saying that he emphasized the risks of some of the visitors who exceeded visas. US officials say the man accused of the attack has exceeded a tourist visa. He is from Egypt, and he is not on the restricted Trump list.

The ban was quickly condemned by groups that provide assistance for aid and resettlement for refugees.

“This policy is not related to national security – it is related to the seed of division and distortion of societies that seek safety and opportunity in the United States,” said Abe McCman, President of Oxfam America, an international non -profit relief organization.

The transitional presidential council, Hitty, said in a statement that the embargo “may be randomly affecting all the Haitians” and that it hopes to persuade the United States to drop Haiti from the list of banned countries.

In Venezuela, some visa owners changed travel plans last week to apply for Trump’s restrictions. For those who do not have visas, the new restrictions may not care much. Since Venezuela and US diplomatic relations in 2019, Venezuels had to travel to South American countries adjacent to American visas.

Jose Luis Vegas, a technical worker in the Venezuelan capital in Karacas, said his uncle abandoned the expired US visa because it was already difficult before the restrictions.

“Paying the price of hotels and tickets was very expensive, and the appointments took up to a year,” said Vigas.
