African Union ‘concerned’ by ‘negative impact’ of US travel ban

The African Union (AU) on Thursday expressed concern over a new US travel ban on several countries, while Somalis were indignant at being among the seven African nations singled out by the Trump administration. President Donald Trump signed the decree on Wednesday, banning citizens from Somalia, Chad, Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Libya, Sudan, Yemen, Afghanistan, Myanmar, Haiti and Iran from travelling to the United States.
