Trump’s first travel ban caused protests across the US in 2017

US President Donald Trump has given a new travel ban to the people of 12 countries, reconsidering his first Halmark policy.

However, there are some important differences.

The original travel ban experienced a series of legal defeats. During this time, a policy is designed to avoid the same frauds.

Its predecessor, targeted by seven predominantly Muslim countries and the so -called “Muslim ban,” was ordered by Trump in 2017, a week after Trump took office in the White House.

The ban has been amended twice to alleviate the challenges of the court, and after the opponents argued that it was unconstitutional and illegal, it discriminated against passengers on the basis of their religion.

The scaled-back version was finally upheld in the US Supreme Court 2018, with this new ban being closely similar.

Legal experts told BBC that Trump learned lessons from his first attempt.

London firm Laura Divine said US immigration law specialist Christie Jackson said the new ban was more legally visible.

He said that although there was no “clarity” at first, the new restrictions were widespread in the range “and” clearly defined “exceptions.

Despite some comparisons in countries elected by the 2017 ban and the 2025 ban, the Muslim majority states are not a recent order.

Barbara McCewade, a legal professor at Michigan University and former US lawyer of Michigan, told the BBC World Service Newsore Program that on this basis, the approval of the Supreme Court is likely to be won.

The 12 countries, which have been subjected to rigorous restrictions since June 9, are mainly the Middle East, including Africa and Caribbean, Afghanistan, Iran and Somalia.

There will be partial restrictions on passengers from seven more countries, including citizens of Cuban and Venezuela.

Trump said the strength of restrictions would be graded against the intensity of the perceived threat, including terrorism.

But in addition to Iran, none of the 12 countries suffering from a complete ban are not named in the state sponsors of the US government’s terrorism list.

Trump referred to Sunday’s incident in the bowler of Colorado, in which a man announced an X ban on Molotov cocktails on protesters participating in the march of Israeli hostage.

The alleged invaders were an Egyptian citizen. However, Egypt does not appear on the list.

View: President Trump has announced a travel ban from “high -risk areas”

Trump has specified the rates of more people who surpass their visas as a reason for listing some countries.

However, US -based immigration lawyer Steven de Heller said that there is a “lack of clarity” on what limit the country needs to meet the country’s excessive rate to place that country on his ban. He suggested that it could be the basis for a successful legal challenge.

“If they rely on this idea of ​​excessive rates … they must define the meaning of this,” he told the BBC.

But he noted that the existing US law president was given a broad authority on immigration policy.

Unlike the first ban, which lasts only 90 to 120 days, there is no deadline for today’s order.

It is disappointed in the proposed countries.

Venezuela has described the Trump administration as “dominant who thinks they have the world,” although Somalia has pledged to “engage in a conversation to solve raised concerns”.

The original ban sparked mass protests and sowed a mess at the US airports.

It was canceled by Trump’s successor Joe Biden in 2021, calling this policy “a stain on our national conscience.”

Immigration lawyer Shabnam Lotfi, who questioned the previous travel ban, said the cancellation of the new one was a “uphill battle”.

“The president has the authority to decide who can accept who can accept the US,” he said, adding that the ban was written, “It is difficult to find a group of big people who can file a class-action lawsuit,” he said.

“He thought more of it.”

MS Lotfi noted that new restrictions can have consequences for students abroad and other visa applicants.

“Students who are caught in the administrative process will be affected. Even the winners of the diversity of visa lottery who have paid the fees and go to interviews – they are unlikely to get visas now,” he said.

“Even the EB -5 investors – people who put Million 1 million to the US economy – will be affected. And the H -1B visa holders abroad are waiting for their US employers to return.”
