Trump expands US travel ban to include Palestinians, five new nations

US President Donald Trump

President Donald Trump has signed a proclamation imposing new and expanded travel restrictions on foreign nationals from several countries, including a full entry ban for holders of Palestinian Authority travel documents. The measures, citing national security, come into effect on January 1.

President Donald Trump has significantly expanded restrictions on foreign nationals entering the United States, adding five new countries and imposing a full entry ban on individuals using Palestinian Authority travel documents. The White House announced the new policy on Tuesday, stating it is necessary to protect national security and will become active on January 1, 2025.

New Full Restrictions and Key Additions

The proclamation places full entry limitations on nationals from Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, South Sudan, and Syria, extending the existing list of restricted countries. In a notable move, it also explicitly applies full restrictions to anyone holding a Palestinian Authority-issued passport or travel document. Additionally, Laos and Sierra Leone have been moved from partial to full restriction status.

Broadened Partial Restrictions and One Easing

The order widens the scope of partial entry limits, which affect certain visa categories like business, tourist, and student visas, to include 15 more nations. These include Angola, Nigeria, Senegal, Tanzania, and Zambia. In a single exception, the administration lifted nonimmigrant visa restrictions for nationals of Turkmenistan, citing improved cooperation, though immigrant visas remain suspended.

Rationale and Presidential Duty

The White House justified the expansive measures as a fulfillment of executive responsibility. "It is the President’s duty to take action to ensure that those seeking to enter our country will not harm the American people," the proclamation stated. The policy continues partial restrictions on several other countries, including Burundi, Cuba, Togo, and Venezuela.
