snoop1130 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 UAE says Trump travel ban an internal U.S. affair United Arab Emirates (UAE) Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan addresses the United Nations General Assembly in the Manhattan borough of New York, U.S., September 24, 2016. REUTERS/Eduardo Munoz ABU DHABI (Reuters) - President Donald Trump's travel ban imposed on citizens of seven mainly Muslim countries was a sovereign decision for the United States and not directed at any religion, United Arab Emirates Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed said on Wednesday. Speaking at a joint news conference with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov in Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Abdullah also said the idea of safe zones in Syria would be welcome if they were to be temporary and for humanitarian purposes under international auspices. But he said Abu Dhabi wanted to hear more details from Washington before subscribing to the idea.

Buckwheat Flour Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Like it or not, implementation of immigration laws pertaining to the USA is determined by the USA government. You are wasting your time whinging about this. Unless you can vote in the USA, suggest you just order another pint, get pissed with your like-minded mates, and find another tree to piss on.
