Trump travel ban
UK to introduce stringent measures for air passenger hand luggage - report
Make-up, baby powder and coffee may all be banned from being carried on to the plane on all flights leaving Britain.
Trump’s policy, announced in September, blocks entry into the United States of most people from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen.
Since the ban took effect, the State Department told Reuters more than 375 waivers have been approved, but declined to say for which countries and out of how many applications.
It was not immediately clear if the marshals would travel solely on US-owned airlines or also on Mexican carriers.
On 24 October, the Trump administration effectively paused refugee admissions from 11 countries mostly in the Middle East and Africa, pending a 90-day security review.
The ban targets people from Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen seeking to enter the United States.
The United States lifted its ban in July on passengers on Saudi Arabian airlines carrying large electronics on board flights bound for America.
This week the US Supreme Court allowed the ban to take full effect while litigation over its ultimate validity continues.
Donald Trump’s ban also covers people from North Korea and certain government officials from Venezuela.
In 2015, among 778,781 physicians practicing in the US, 164,111, or 21 percent, were foreign medical graduates, the analysis found.
Iran, Libya, Syria, Yemen and Somalia were left on the list of affected countries in a new proclamation issued by the president.
The ruling is the latest legal blow to the President’s sweeping executive order barring travellers from six Muslim-majority countries for 90 days.
US government officials will visit Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport “later this week to confirm compliance there as well,” spokesman James Gregory said.
The Supreme Court said then that the ban could take effect, but that people with a “bona fide relationship” to a US person or entity could not be barred.
Countries that fail to comply with the new protocols or take steps to do so within 50 days could face travel sanctions.
Do you know why people are leaving the six countries that President Trump has banned from travelling to the US?
The US government expects “things to run smoothly” and “business as usual” at US ports of entry, another senior US official told reporters.
A copy of a cable distributed to all US diplomatic posts specified that any relationship with a US entity must be formal and documented.
The measures would affect 325,000 airline passengers on about 2,000 commercial flights arriving daily in the US, on 180 airlines from 280 airports in 105 countries.
