What does Donald Trump's immigrant ban mean?
US President Donald Trump has signed an executive order banning immigrants from seven Muslim-majority nations, including Iran and Syria, for 90 days. It also suspends the US Refugee Admissions Programme for 120 days and imposes an indefinite ban on Syrian refugees. Reducing the 2017 refugee intake target to 50,000 from 1,10,000, it also prioritises refugee claims based on religious persecution.
