Trump's New Travel Ban: A Controversial Move with Notable Omissions

Donald Trump's new travel ban has sparked controversy. The ban, effective June 9th, restricts entry from 12 countries citing concerns about ineffective local administrations and cooperation difficulties. Nine additional countries face partial restrictions. "We cannot have open migration from any country where we cannot safely and reliably vet and screen," stated President Trump in a video announcement. The video also highlighted exceptions for visa holders and those whose travel serves the national interest. However, the omission of Egypt, the origin country of the suspected attacker in a recent Colorado incident, raises questions about the ban's consistency. The video's presentation of facts and visual aids makes it a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of this policy.
