Venezuelan officials are strongly criticizing the expanded travel ban announced by U.S. President Donald Trump, which imposes full or partial restrictions on 12 countries, including Venezuela. The ban, which revives and broadens a similar measure from Trump's first term, is set to take effect on June 9.
The proclamation imposes a full travel ban on nationals from countries such as Afghanistan, Iran, and Somalia, while partially restricting entry from Venezuela, Cuba, Burundi, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, and Turkmenistan.
