A U.S. judge has ruled to revoke the policy of the Trump administration that was blocking the issuance of immigration visas to applicants from 75 countries. The judge indicated that the policy was unlawful and conflicted with federal law, which grants the Secretary of State authority over visa procedures. The policy's enforcement had led to a direct ban on visa issuance based on applicants' nationality, resulting in a halt in visa processing since January, affecting applicants from Latin America, the Balkans, South Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and the Caribbean. The ruling came in a lawsuit filed by human rights organizations and citizens, with the judge affirming that the policies aimed to impose unlawful restrictions on migrants' rights. This decision follows widespread criticism of Trump's policies, which have been described as discriminatory and repressive regarding human rights.
