Mali and Burkina Faso have said they are imposing a travel ban on US citizens in response to an equivalent measure announced by the Trump administration earlier this month.
In separate statements issued by their foreign ministries late on Tuesday, the two West African countries said they were acting in the name of “reciprocity” after the White House announced on December 16 that US President Donald Trump was adding them and five other countries to a list of those subject to a full travel ban.
The White House said the expanded ban, set to take effect on January 1, applied to “countries with demonstrated, persistent, and severe deficiencies in screening, vetting, and information-sharing to protect the Nation from national security and public safety threats”.

It was a great move by Trump to put travel bans in place.
Too many people from 3rd world and EUROPE were coming to USA on TOURIST VISAS and then NOT RETURNING.
To: dynachrome
Yeah, no spring break in Burkina Faso this year…

Don’t worry. There are plenty of European countries fast approaching sh*thole status.

I traveled on Ethiopian Airlines a few years back. They were advertising vacations in Mogadishu. Never got around to it.
