According to an internal memo reported by Reuters now Trump administration is considering new travel restrictions on citizens from 41 countries. It would impose different levels of restrictions based on each country’s compliance with U.S. security measures.
A U.S. official, speaking anonymously stated that the list is still under review and could change before final approval by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
