The President’s Path: Trump’s travel ban
As his budget bill falters, President Trump's travel ban shifts the focus.
Donald Trump has signed a ban on travel to the US from 12 countries, citing national security risks. There are also seven additional countries whose nationals will face partial travel restrictions.
CaitrÃona Perry, Sumi Somaskanda, and Bernd Debusmann Jr. explore how the travel ban reflects Trump’s broader approach to immigration and national security. They also discuss the latest phone call between Trump and Vladimir Putin, analysing its potential implications for the ongoing war in Ukraine.
Every weekend, The President’s Path explores the state of US politics — in Washington and beyond. We dig into the key issues shaping America and uncover what’s on the minds of those closest to power. You can contact us at: path@bbc.co.uk
