Chad halts US visas in revenge for Trump travel ban

# The central African nation of Chad says it is suspending all visas to US citizens as a matter of reciprocity, after learning that it is one of a dozen countries whose nationals are banned from travelling to the US. President Mahamat Idriss Délby says Chad has neither planes to offer nor billions of dollars to give, but Chad has its dignity and pride. Africa is the continent worst affected by the travel ban announced by US president Donald Trump, with seven of the 12 countries on the list.
