The US has suspended almost all visa approvals for Palestinian passport holders. This impacts Palestinians seeking medical care, education, and business opportunities in the US.

This decision, impacting even UN assembly attendees (though the US claims compliance with the agreement), further strengthens the Trump administration's alignment with Israel's right-wing government.
