Tit for Tat: Iran Likely to Ban Americans over Trump’s Order for Refugees

TEHRAN: Iran has decided to put a ban on American citizens entering in Iran after the statement made by Trump over Muslim refugees for not entering in America.

According to Iranian Press, Iran’s Foreign Minister has called the decision of newly elected American President illogical, illegal and against the international human rights and relations rules. He further said that if it happens then, Iran will also put a ban on the United States nationals to enter in Iran until the American measure was lifted.

Iran has strongly condemned the decision of Donald Trump regarding U.S visa ban against Tehran and six other majority Muslim countries as an “open affront against the Muslim world and the Iranian nation” and vowed to retaliate.

A Foreign Ministry statement carried by state media said Iran “would take appropriate consular, legal and political measures” against the ban, which was announced by President Donald Trump on Friday.
