Niger just banned all U.S. citizens in response to American visa restrictions

Like anyone actually wants to go there anyway.

Niger in tit-for-tat visa ban targeting US

Niamey has announced a total ban on issuing visas to American citizens and their entry into the country.

It is in response to restrictive measures imposed by the US administration against several African countries, as part of a policy marked by refocusing American diplomacy and hardening its immigration policy.

The Nigerien government decided this week to permanently prohibit the granting of visas to all American nationals and their entry into the country, according to the Nigerien Press Agency (ANP).

This reciprocal measure comes after Washington added Niger to the list of countries whose citizens no longer benefit from preferential entry to the United States.
