White House source: Iraq to be removed from travel ban list
DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. March 6, 2017, 2:24 PM (IDT)
President Donald Trump is to remove Iraq from the list of countries affected by his revised executive order, a White House source said Monday. Great relief was expressed in Baghdad. Trump is expected to sign a new executive order later Monday banning travel to the United States by citizens of six Muslim-majority nations after his controversial first attempt was blocked in the courts. Still listed are Iran, Syria, Libya, Somalia, Yemen and Sudan.
Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
