We call upon the American administration to reverse its decision. This decision will only increase tension and escalation, Palestinian presidential spokesperson Nabil Abu Rudeineh told The Associated Press in Ramallah on Saturday. We have been in contact since yesterday with Arab and foreign countries, especially those directly concerned with this issue. This effort will continue around the clock, he said.

The Trump administration is reviewing the records of more than 55 million US visa holders for potential revocation or deportable violations of immigration rules, in a significant expansion of Donald Trump's immigration crackdown. The state department said that all of the foreigners who now hold valid US visas are subject to continuous vetting for any indication that they could be ineligible for the document, including those already admitted into the country.

This new program, called 'Catch and Revoke,' is alarming due to its implication on free speech and privacy for student visa holders and their American peers.
