Trump to weed out Islamic terrorists |
US President Donald Trump signed a sweeping new executive order on Jan 27, 2017, to suspend refugee arrivals and impose tough new controls on travelers from seven Muslim countries. Making good on one of his most controversial campaign promises, and to the horror of human rights groups, Trump said he was making America safe from "radical Islamic terrorists." The US only wants to admit those into country who will support her and love deeply its people. Trump`s decree suspends the entire US refugee resettlement program for at least 120 days while tough new vetting rules are established. In addition, it specifically bars Syrian refugees from the United States indefinitely, or until the president himself decides that they no longer pose a threat. Meanwhile, no visas will be issued for 90 days to migrants or visitors from seven mainly-Muslim countries: Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen.During the suspensions of the refugee and visa programs, new rules will be devised for what Trump as called the "extreme vetting" of applicants` backgrounds.
