Trump Announces Permanent Pause on Migration from Third World Countries
Washington D.C., Nov 28 — Following a shooting incident near the White House involving an Afghan national, U.S. President Donald Trump announced a permanent suspension of migration from all third world countries. The decision, aimed at giving the U.S. immigration system time to “recover fully,” could have significant global repercussions, affecting millions seeking work, education, or refuge from conflict.
In a statement posted on his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump cited concerns over national security and the capacity of American institutions to manage large inflows of migrants. He argued that while the U.S. has made technological and economic advancements, its immigration policies have historically undermined progress and strained living conditions for citizens and newcomers alike.
The move is expected to generate heated debate both domestically and internationally. Critics argue it may hamper humanitarian efforts and impact international relations, while supporters claim it prioritizes security and strengthens the nation’s ability to manage migration effectively.
Experts also warn that such a sweeping ban could affect sectors that rely heavily on migrant labor, including agriculture, healthcare, and education, as well as universities that host large numbers of international students.
The Trump administration has not yet outlined the legal mechanisms or exceptions for existing visa holders or humanitarian cases, leaving uncertainty about how the policy will be implemented in practice.
