Trump: "Immigration from the Third World Will Be Permanently Suspended"
"Federal Benefits to Non-Citizens Will Be Suspended"
No Specific Countries Named for Immigration Ban
On November 27 (local time), President Donald Trump of the United States announced, "I will permanently suspend immigration from the Third World to allow the American system to fully recover."
President Trump made this statement late at night through his social media platform, Truth Social.
He went on to say, "I will completely revoke the entry of millions of illegal immigrants approved during the (previous) Biden administration, and deport anyone who does not benefit America or cannot love our country. I will suspend all federal benefits and subsidies for non-citizens, revoke citizenship for immigrants who disrupt domestic peace, and deport any foreign nationals who rely on public assistance, pose a security risk, or are incompatible with Western civilization."
He emphasized, "Only anti-immigration measures can completely heal this situation."
President Trump did not specify which Third World countries would be subject to the immigration ban.
Following a National Guard shooting incident in Washington, D.C. on the eve of Thanksgiving, the largest holiday in the United States, the Trump administration has been pushing a hardline anti-immigration policy. On this day, Joseph Edlow, Director of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), announced that President Trump had ordered a comprehensive and thorough review of green cards for foreign nationals from all countries of concern.
