US court overturns Trump's visa suspension, the measure also affected

A federal court in the US has overturned the suspension of immigrant visas for citizens of 75 countries, including Albania.

The ruling was handed down Friday by Judge Jeannette Vargas in Manhattan. She called the Trump administration's policy illegal and in violation of federal immigration law. According to the court, Secretary of State Marco Rubio had exceeded his authority by blocking the issuance of visas based on the nationality of applicants.

The measure was announced in January by the State Department. It affected citizens from 75 countries, including Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Colombia, Pakistan and Bangladesh. The lawsuit was filed by immigrant rights groups and applicants affected by the suspension.

Andi Bushati: An autumn with an end-of-regime atmosphere

Whether it's his own party's own dice that throw him a punch, whether it's citizens who boo him in the street, whether it's the brave SPAK prosecutors who have gotten close to his throat, or international journalists who compare him to the godfather, one thing shows that Edi Rama's political curve has reached its end. His propaganda narrative is already over.

Blendi Kajsiu: Prime Minister's misunderstanding on anti-corruption

The fact that no institution of our public administration noticed that millions of euros were invested in phantom incinerators, that AKSHI was controlled by an ordinary criminal, that the directors of the Municipality of Tirana awarded tenders to themselves, or that the police director and the director of SHISH worked for Gysi, shows that we do not have a public administration and a state.
