The US Supreme Court handed over Donald Trump's «Muslim ban» on Monday (June 26th), pending a hearing in the fall, AFP said. The decree prohibiting the entry into the United States of the inhabitants of six predominantly Muslim countries (Syria, Yemen, Sudan, Iran, Somalia, Libya). The court is allowing the ban to go into effect for foreign nationals who lack any «bona fide relationship with any person or entity in the United States.»
This decision of the Supreme Court is a relative but notable victory for Donald Trump, whose emblematic measure was suspended by multiple judges, both in first instance and on appeal.
Announced throughout Trump's campaign and signed in the first week of its mandate, the decree banning citizens of seven Muslim countries namely (Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, The Sudan, Syria and Yemen) immediately provoked a worldwide outcry, with thousands of people being banned from US territory in the name of national security, even if they had a Visa.
In March, after two judges suspended the decree, Donald Trump signed an amended version. It excluded Iraq from the list of the banned countries,green card and visa bearers. But this version was in turn suspended by a judge, who had considered that this decree is a form of discrimination against Muslims.
