US President Donald Trump on Tuesday once again stressed the need to introduce a temporary travel ban for the citizens of "dangerous" countries.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — On Monday, Trump advocated for the original form of the travel ban, "not the watered down, politically correct version" of it.

On March 6, Trump introduced a revised version of the temporary travel ban concerning nationals from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. Unlike his first executive order signed on January 27, citizens of Iraq were not included in the second one.
