Chadian President, Mahamat Idriss Deby, has announced the suspension of visa issuance to citizens of the United States in retaliation for a U.S. travel ban that affects several countries, mostly in Africa.
The decision, announced on Thursday via a Facebook post, is a direct response to a travel restriction order issued by U.S. President Donald Trump, which included Chad among a list of 12 affected countries.
In his post, President Deby stated, “I instructed the government to act in accordance with the principles of reciprocity and suspend the issuance of visas to citizens of the United States of America.
