Full List: Trump Plans Travel Ban On 41 Countries

Donald Trump,  United States President has stated plans to impose a travel ban on 41 countries.

According to a report on Saturday, Reuters cited an internal memo and officials familiar with the matter.

The memo lists a total of 43 countries divided into three groups: red, orange, and yellow.

Although the list has yet to be approved by the Trump administration, it comprises several African countries, with African economic powerhouses like Nigeria, South Africa, Algeria, and Egypt excluded.

The red group consists of 11 countries-

• Afghanistan
• Iran
• Sudan
• Syria
• Libya
• Cuba
• Bhutan
• Venezuela
• North Korea
• Yemen
• Somalia

The orange group includes;

• Russia
• Belarus

• Laos
• Turkmenistan
• Haiti
• Eritrea

The yellow list includes;

• Angola
• Antigua and Barbuda
• Benin

• The Democratic Republic of Congo
• Dominica

• Gambia
• Liberia
• Malawi
• Mali
• Mauritania
• St. Kitts and Nevis

The New York Times had first reported the list of countries earmarked for the proposed visa ban.

However, a US official told Reuters that there could be changes on the list and that it was yet to be approved by the administration, including Marco Rubio, the secretary of state.

The proposal is part of an immigration crackdown that Trump launched at the start of his second term in January.
