VTV.vn - The latest travel ban of President Donald Trump was allowed to go into full effect by the The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday (December 4).

This ban targets people from six Muslim-majority countries including Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen.

The nine-member court, with two liberal justices dissenting, granted his administration's request to lift two injunctions imposed by lower courts that had partially blocked the ban.This is the third version of a contentious policy that Trump first sought to implement a week after taking office in January.The Republican president has said the travel ban is needed to protect the United States from terrorism by Islamic militants.
