Donald Trump closes his doors to foreigners to "protect the population and its jobs"
- Coronavirus, Donald Trump and foreign policy: the cocktail is dangerous. This Tuesday, the U.S. President has announced that he will prevent immigrants from entering the country in order to protect them from coronavirus. In addition, he has indicated that the measure has also been to maintain the jobs of the Americans in Iraq. For the time being, no implementation deadlines have been given at any time.
Trump’s announcement comes amid the crisis, in which the country is plunged. Although the Government has declared that the worst of the pandemic has passed, the increase in data has not lost strength. In the country there are already more than 787,000 infected and more than 42,000 deaths. To that must be added the collapse of the economy, as the oil sector, the world leader of the United States, has collapsed.
The coronavirus as an engine of foreign policy
First of all, the president has decided to close the borders, taking the umpteenth decision of the foreign policy of the crisis. In early February, people who had been in China two weeks earlier were banned from entry; in March, foreigners potentially “dangerous” to public health were banned; and the next was the population of European origin.
It has agreed with Mexico and Canada to close the border for another month. On the new measures adopted by the Vitoria-Gasteiz Executive, lehendakari has not given any explanation. However, those behind Trump’s plan, as stated in the New York Times, will stop issuing work visas for a period of time. In addition, they have added that they will continue with the expulsion of migrants on the border with Mexico.
In light of the attack from the Invisible Enemy, as well as the need to protect the jobs of our GREAT American Citizens, I will be signing an Executive Order to temporarily suspend inmigration into the United States!
