Poor old Trumpy

Travel becomes more complicated for convicted felons. This is a factor that Donald Trump will need to consider when making travel plans in the future.

Performing his diplomatic duties might be very challenging for Donald Trump if he is elected president in November. As a convicted felon there is now a very long list of countries where Trump will be banned from entry.

According to World Population Review, many countries bar convicted felons from entry. Thirty-eight nations, including the United States, ban convicted felons outright from entering their countries.

As reported by People magazine, the bans are enforced even if the convicted individual is still allowed to retain their passport. This could potentially make Donald Trump’s political life significantly more challenging if he were to return to the White House, adding a layer of uncertainty to his future.

However, it is true that in some cases, the international government may decide to make an exception for Donald Trump, particularly if he requested special permission to visit the country as the president of the United States.

Ironically, Trump himself has often called foreigners coming to the United States criminals, and now he himself will be a foreign convicted criminal hoping to enter another country.

Regardless, the list of countries that ban convicted felons from visiting is extensive, and many of these countries are either US allies or nations crucial for Trump’s foreign policy engagements. This situation could significantly impact Trump’s international relations. Click on to see all the countries Trump is banned from visiting.

Both Canada and Mexico ban convicted felons from entering the country. These countries are the United States’ closest neighbors, so it could really make life difficult for Trump.

Cuba©Provided by The Daily Digest

Technically Cuba is considered part of North America, and Trump likely wouldn’t be traveling there, but even if he wanted to, he would be banned from entry.

There are four countries in South America that ban convicted felons from entry: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Peru.

While not technically in South America, the Dominican Republic also isn’t interested in receiving criminals and bans convicts from entering.

Europe©Provided by The Daily Digest

Donald Trump, surprisingly can visit most European countries as a convicted felon. However, there are a few countries where he is banned, including the United Kingdom and Ireland, both close US allies. In addition he won’t be able to visit Turkey or Ukraine.

Asia©Provided by The Daily Digest

When it comes to Asia, things are pretty strict, and there are very few countries that Trump could travel to. Convicted felons are banned from: Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Macao, Philippines, Singapore, Nepal, South Korea, and Taiwan.

Africa©Provided by The Daily Digest

Trump may have to cancel any plans to go on an African safari in the future. As a convicted felon he is persona non grata in Kenya, Morocco, South Africa, Tanzania, and Tunisia.

Oceania©Provided by The Daily Digest

Trump’s political life, if elected, would be further complicated by the inability to make diplomatic trips to visit American allies Australia and New Zealand as both countries have bans on felons entering.

Middle East©Provided by The Daily Digest

And when it comes to the Middle East Trump is banned from entering Egypt, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, and I s r a e l. However, we think I s r a e l would likely make an exception for Trump, as the country’s leader has his own legal troubles, the president of I s r a e l is wanted by the ICC.

If Trump wins he most likely will give himself a presidential pardon©Provided by The Daily Digest

Of course, if Trump does win in November, we have a pretty good feeling one of the first things he will attempt to do is give himself a clean slate by granting his own presidential pardon. That’s too bad because it would have been fun seeing him suffer trying to enter all those countries.

Uromi killings: Defence Headquarters gives progress report

Published

The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) has confirmed that the political leaders from Edo and Kano states have ended the tension that emerged following the recent killings in Uromi, Edo State.

Director of Defence Media Operations, Major General Markus Kangye, stated on Thursday that both state governments have taken steps to address the issue. He noted that the Edo State leadership had visited Kano to engage with the affected families.

“So at the political level, everything has been resolved. I don’t think there is going to be any issue. Anybody or group causing apprehension or threats, if security agencies are aware, will be investigated,” Kangye said.

On the issue of herdsmen attacks in various parts of the country, including the FCT, Enugu, Benue, Ondo, Zamfara, and Cross River states, Kangye rejected claims that the military had relaxed its efforts.

“The military has not abandoned the war against violent herdsmen, terrorists, and bandits. We have neutralized many of them, and we are continuing the onslaught to get rid of them and their leaders,” he said.

Addressing speculations that Niger Republic may have withdrawn from the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF), Kangye dismissed the reports as unverified.

“MNJTF was established by countries of the Lake Chad Basin Commission to tackle the myriads of cross-border movement of terrorists and other criminals because what happens in one country affects the others. But if by chance, any of the countries pull out for any reason, it will have implications for others because the synergy of efforts will no longer be there. So efforts must be sustained to make sure this synergy is sustained in the Lake Chad Basin Commission countries,” he explained.

Human Rights Activist Omoyele Sowore Slams DSS Over Priorities

Renowned human rights activist Omoyele Sowore has criticized the Department of State Services (DSS) for its alleged selective enforcement of the law. Sowore questioned the DSS’s priorities, asking why they swiftly arrest individuals who plan protests or criticize the President, while failing to apprehend terrorists transporting guns from the North to the South.

Sowore’s comments come amid the ongoing crisis in Uromi, Edo State.

His statement highlights the perceived double standard in the DSS’s approach to maintaining national security.

This is not Sowore’s first encounter with the DSS. In 2019, he was arrested and detained for calling for a peaceful revolution. The charges against him were eventually struck out in February 2024, after a lengthy court battle.

Sowore’s criticism of the DSS has sparked a conversation about the agency’s role in maintaining national security, while also respecting human rights and upholding the rule of law.
