President of the United States, Donald Trump.
Donald
Trump, according to reports, is expected to approve some executive
orders that include visa denial for citizens of Syria and six other
middle eastern and African countries.
Here
is a list of the countries that may never be allowed to visit the
United States under Donald Trump's reign as the 45th American leader:
1. Syria
2. Iraq
3. Iran
4. Libya
5. Somalia
6. Sudan
7. Yemen
An undisclosed congressional aide and
immigration experts revealed this and also backed it up by saying this
move is in connection with his tweet.
According
to Reuters, Stephen Legomsky, the chief counsel at US citizenship and
immigration services in the last administration, informed that Trump has
the legal power to limit refugee admissions and the issuance of visas
to specific countries if the administration determined it was in the
public’s interest.
The professor at Washington University School of Law in St Louis, said: "From a legal standpoint, it would be exactly within his legal rights.
"But
from a policy standpoint, it would be terrible idea because there is
such an urgent humanitarian need right now for refugees.”
The
American president is expected to sign the first of the orders at the
Department of Homeland Security, where immigration and border
security-related issues are also being handled.
There
had been a widespread uproar during Trump's campaign when he proposed a
temporary ban on Muslims migrating to the United States, this he
believed, would protect the citizens from jihadist attacks.
But
rather than place a ban on those of a specific religion, Trump and his
nominee for attorney general, Senator Jeff Sessions, have agreed to
focus on restrictions instead, with special focus on countries whose
migrants could pose a threat.
Meanwhile, the American president has started fulfilling some of the promises he made prior to his election in November, 2016.
According to reports, Trump will sign an order for the construction of a wall along the Mexico border.
