After Donald Trump, Kuwait bans visa for five Muslim-majority countries, including Pakistan

After US President Donald Trump's executive order banning 7 Muslim Majority Countries last Friday Jan 30,2017, now Kuwait has suspended the issuance of visas for nationals of Syria, Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran.


The Kuwaiti government has told would-be migrants from the five banned nations to not apply for visas, as it is worried about the possible migration of radical Islamic terrorists
Kuwait was the only nation to prohibit the entry of Syrian nationals prior to Trump's executive action. Kuwait City previously issued a suspension of visas for all Syrians in 2011

Note
US President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday Jan 30,2017 to block refugees from entering the US for 120 days and immigrants from seven predominantly Muslim nations away for three months.
