00:00And if we just move on to another story, Trump has banned citizens from 12 countries from

00:06entering the U.S., saying we don't want them. Was this announcement a surprise or just a

00:13repeat of his first term in office? Well, in the U.S., there's been a lot of

00:20news about domestic terror attacks by foreign nationals of late. This is just the latest

00:26one. As your former reporter just said, there was another attack coming out of Colorado.

00:31And we've also been seeing it on university campuses as well. A lot of the instigators

00:37are foreign nationals, those who've overstayed their visas, those who came on foreign student

00:42visas, et cetera. So President Trump, all he wants is to properly vet anyone coming into

00:49the United States, whether they're students or tourists or potential employees for a U.S.

00:54company. And that's what he is asking for. Unfortunately, a lot of the host company,

01:00sorry, host countries are not vetting properly or giving the right documentation for these

01:05visas to come through. And so he's starting from square one. OK, let's vet them properly.

01:12Let's allow people in slowly. We're certainly going to see the effects of the summer travel

01:17season here in the U.S. I think a lot of people are a little bit more reserved to come to the

01:21U.S. because of all these bans, but they are necessary for national security interests.
