Donald Trump Blocks UN Visas for Sudanese and Palestinians
Donald Trump blocked visas for accredited Sudanese and Palestinian members, sparking calls to move the United Nations headquarters to Switzerland.
President Donald Trump blocked visas for accredited Sudanese and Palestinian members, preventing them from attending meetings at the United Nations in New York. The decision restricts the ability of these member states to participate in the international organization's proceedings on United States soil.
The action has triggered immediate backlash from critics, including Joe Cocker, who argued that the United States government exerts undue influence over the organization. These critics are now calling for the relocation of the United Nations headquarters to Switzerland to ensure the body remains independent of U.S. political interference.
