The law is mainly directed against countries whose main population is Muslims. The American president promised that in 2018 Washington will give permission to enter the country only 45 thousand migrants, not counting those who already have relatives in the US. According to a court ruling in Seattle, the exception will be refugees who do not have sufficient evidence of contact with persons or entities that are already in the US.

Earlier, the San Francisco court also curtailed the decree of Trump, allowing the ban on entry into the country only to citizens of six countries, including countries such as Syria, Libya, Iran, Southern Sudan, Somalia, Chad. However, residents of the Caribbean islands and Venezuela can also all enter the country on the estate of special documents.

As reported in URA-Inform, the US Supreme Court earlier signed a presidential memorandum, which outlines quotas for the reception of refugees in 2018.
