The Trump administration is planning new travel restrictions. A leaked memo reveals that 41 countries may face visa bans.
The list includes Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bhutan, Iran, and North Korea. These nations could see complete or partial visa suspensions. The ban aims to tighten US border security.
The affected countries are grouped into three categories. The first faces full visa suspensions, including Iran, North Korea, and Afghanistan. The second may see restricted visa types. This includes Pakistan, Bhutan, and Myanmar. The third must improve security measures or face restrictions.
The proposal is awaiting final approval. Trump’s earlier travel bans targeted Muslim-majority nations. The new plan expands the list significantly. If implemented, it could impact thousands of travellers.
The administration argues the move is for national security. Critics say it unfairly targets certain regions. The final decision is expected soon.
