The Trump administration issued a proclamation suspending U.S. travel for citizens from 12 countries, according to CNBC. The list of countries includes Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. The proclamation cites national security concerns, stating that the affected countries lack adequate screening to identify potential safety or terrorism threats. The proclamation also restricted partial travel on nationals from seven countries, including Cuba, Laos, and Venezuela. Trump said he ordered a security review of “high-risk regions” on his first day in office to guide travel restriction recommendations.
