Seven of the 12 countries whose nationals are banned from going to the US are in Africa.

In a recent move, former President Donald Trump has imposed travel restrictions on ten African countries—Eritrea, Kyrgyzstan, Myanmar, Nigeria, Sudan, Tanzania, and four others—citing security concerns. This decision, announced on January 31, 2020, expands on previous travel bans implemented during his presidency and has sparked significant controversy and debate. Critics argue that the ban is discriminatory and lacks substantial evidence linking these countries to increased security risks, while supporters believe it is a necessary measure to protect national security. The affected countries have expressed disappointment and frustration, with some planning to challenge the decision legally. This development adds to the ongoing discussions about immigration policy and national security in the United States.
