US entry becomes challenging under Trump's administration
The United States has introduced new visa rules that will make the process of obtaining a U.S. visa more challenging, according to a report by DEITA.RU. These changes apply to tourist trips, business trips, medical treatment, and study, and are part of the tough immigration policies introduced by the Trump administration.
Previously, applicants had the choice of where to apply for a U.S. visa, but the new rules mandate that interviews will now take place in the applicant's country of residence or citizenship. This change was approved by Donald Trump and is aimed at limiting the volume of new immigrant flows.
The State Department has published an order regarding these new U.S. visa rules, which state that if a country does not have a U.S. representation, applicants must apply to an embassy or consulate on a special list.
There may be rare exceptions to these rules for foreign policy, urgent medical assistance, or exceptional humanitarian circumstances. However, the opportunity to visit the U.S. may become increasingly limited to the wealthy and highly qualified applicants.
For Russians, the options for applying for a non-immigrant visa have been narrowed down to Astana, Warsaw, Belarus, and several other countries.
The news of these new U.S. visa regulations has been reported by Vedomosti, adding to the growing concerns about the impact of these changes on international travel and immigration.
