From People/Yahoo:
“Donald Trump Is Banned from
37 Countries as Convicted Felon, Including Major Allies Like Canada and U.K.”
If elected president again, Trump
would need special permission to enter several key countries for maintaining
foreign relations. Donald Trump may face travel restrictions with his newfound
felon status, potentially complicating his presidency if he were to win another
term in office.
Thirty-eight nations, counting
the United States, bar felons from entry, according to World Population Review.
Those bans stand regardless of whether someone is allowed to retain their
passport after conviction. Countries that turn felons away include several of
the United States' strongest allies, like the United Kingdom, Australia and
Canada — the final of which will host the G7 summit of world leaders in 2025.
The list also includes a number of nations at the center of pressing foreign
policy issues, such as China, Israel and Mexico.
International governments can,
and in some cases would, choose to make an exception for Trump if he requested
special permission as president to make a visit. George W. Bush, who was
arrested for drunk driving in the 1970s, ran into issues with Canadian travel
restrictions during his presidency while planning an official state visit and,
after applying for a special waiver, he was ultimately allowed to enter. In
Bush's case, which still proved tedious, the circumstances were a bit
different: the crime happened decades earlier, was only categorized as a
misdemeanor and was never tried in a court of law (Bush admitted to driving
under the influence upon arrest and got off with a fine and temporary license
suspension). It's hard to say whether Trump's new 34 felony convictions would
be dealt with in a similar manner.
Countries That Deny Entry to
Felons: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Cambodia, Canada, Chile, China, Cuba,
the Dominican Republic, Egypt, Ethiopia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Iran, Ireland,
Israel, Japan, Kenya, Macau, Malaysia, Mexico, Morocco, Nepal, New Zealand, Peru,
the Philippines, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Taiwan,
Tanzania, Tunisia, Turkey, Ukraine, the United
Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom and the United
States.
If Trump were elected to another
term in the White House and chose to apply for special travel waivers, the
irony would not go unnoticed. The former president has often characterized
foreigners as "criminals," and has campaigned on a promise to tighten
U.S. travel restrictions, which would include shutting down the border and
instating travel bans on people of certain nationalities and ideologies.
^ Even if he isn’t re-Elected as
President he is still a Convicted Criminal and still needs Waivers to go to
these places. ^
