Of Africa’s 54 countries, 36 are now subject to either travel bans or visa bonds by the United States. African states are the prime target of President Donald Trump's latest round of travel restrictions, which he says are aimed at protecting national security and preventing visitors overstaying.
The US State Department this week added several more African countries – including Algeria, Côte d'Ivoire, Nigeria, Senegal, Uganda and Zimbabwe – to its list of states whose passport holders will be required to post bonds when applying for a visa.
