The proposal of the American President regarding the travel ban affecting visitors from six Muslim countries can go into full effect, as the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on behalf of the restrictions.

Strongly opposed by liberals Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor, the third version of the controversial ban was recently ruled by the other representatives of the Supreme Court.

With the latest decision, citizens from Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen will experience several restrictions if aiming to entry the United States of America.

As the rule is still pending a few legal difficulties, appeals in San Francisco, California, and Richmond, Virginia, will establish if the regulations are lawful. The travel ban documentation will after that return to the Supreme Court, for the final review.

The banning order was signed for the first time in January by President Donald Trump. The measure aimed at banning the entry of people from Muslim-majority countries for 90 days, as well as all refugees indefinitely, which led to massive protests and legal inquiries.

The revised version of the order, issued in March, lifted the ban for citizens from Iraq, as well as the indefinite ban on Syrian migrants, while in June the order almost fully went into effect, including a 4 months ban on all people seeking refuge inside the U.S. territory. The only applied exception was the “bona fide” entry permission.
