00:00A sweeping decision from the White House

00:27is reshaping who can enter the United States.

00:31In a move framed as a matter of national security,

00:34President Donald Trump has sharply expanded America's travel ban,

00:39adding seven more countries to a list that already spans much of the globe.

00:45The proclamation, signed Tuesday,

00:47bars citizens of seven additional countries from entering the U.S., including Syria.

00:53The White House says the move strengthens restrictions on nations

00:57with what it calls severe deficiencies in screening and vetting.

01:02Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, South Sudan, Syria, Laos, and Sierra Leone.

01:10Laos and Sierra Leone had previously faced only partial restrictions,

01:15but are now under a full ban.

01:17The White House says all expanded measures will take effect on January 1.

01:22The inclusion of Syria is especially striking.

01:26Just weeks ago, Trump pledged support for Syria's future

01:30after landmark talks with its new president, Ahmed al-Shara,

01:34who has sought to end decades of isolation after toppling Bashar al-Assad.

01:40But that tone shifted dramatically after a deadly attack in Syria.

01:45Two U.S. Army soldiers and a civilian interpreter

01:48were killed when a suspected Islamic State attacker struck a joint convoy.

01:53The White House also cited visa overstay rates and Syria's fragile civil infrastructure,

02:00saying the country lacks a reliable central authority to issue passports or conduct adequate vetting.

02:06This expansion builds on a sweeping order Trump signed in June,

02:11banning travelers from 12 countries outright

02:14and imposing partial restrictions on seven others,

02:17rules that remain fully in place.

02:20Trump has also added partial restrictions on 15 more countries,

02:25including Nigeria, which has drawn scrutiny

02:27after Trump cited concerns over violence against Christians,

02:32claims Nigeria disputes.

02:33Since returning to office, Trump has aggressively enforced integration policy,

02:39deploying federal agents to cities

02:41and sharply limiting asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border.

02:45The latest expansion follows last month's fatal shooting

02:49of two National Guard members in Washington, D.C.

02:53Investigators say the suspect entered the U.S.

02:56through a resettlement program in 2021.
