A “visa war” is intensifying across Africa as nations move to retaliate against the Trump administration’s hardline immigration policies. In a significant escalation, Sahel allies Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger have banned US nationals from entering their territories. This “tit-for-tat” response comes after the Trump administration expanded travel restrictions to 20 countries—including these three junta-led nations—citing security crisis. The friction extends beyond the Sahel. Earlier this year, Namibia ended visa-free travel for Americans, while countries like Zambia and Malawi were targeted by a new visa Bond programme requiring travellers to pay bonds up to $15,000 to visit the US.

Following from Liberia west Africa
All places not one American gives a single sh*t about traveling to. Ever.
Like as if anybody is bothered about what measures these mercenaries take….they are so dumb.
They can travel to Russia… their little pal 😂😂
I tell you what, guys? We are at the brink of WW3…😶
Since Americans don't need other countries and they feel superior, I wish they move their military bases away and stay away from them and mind its own business away from Africa, Asia and middle east.
We Africans do not want the French and Americans, we Africans will retain our African identity.
But i wanna move 😢, I hate this country now…..😢
Mali, Niger and Burkina they not acting in a discreet manner on showing America that they do not fear them or they can do what it does to others.
They must summoned other African leaders and unite with them to discuss issues that threaten Africa. Try to find resolutions and response and African leaders should avoid making one white man enemy and considering the other a friend.
For blood is thicker than water and politics it's a trick, they can turn against you in battle and enslave you again and distribute your continent to one another.
Mali, Burkina and Niger must learn to interact with other African leaders without pressuring that they are captured by the west.
East or West is the same person and can discover one purpose and see with the same eye when it come to black.
Whoever you turn to u'll always be black, black, black, black. You can turn to America or Russia but u'll always black and your being black can easily turn you into trouble and you'll ruin the entire continent for being stubborn.
Turn to other African leaders and if they advise you against your plans and wishes they will give you a reason for such advice, go and sleep for a week over it juggling it around your mind it will make sense.
Africa needs transformation and unity, it can and will never happen if African leaders turn a blind eye towards one another.
The more they turn that blind eye the more black communities are exposed to poverty and inequality,and the past imbalances will never be properly managed.
These three African countries apart from their strength and capability for battle, they seem to be more clever but being clever alone become disastrous if you don't share you thoughts with your brothers to test your accuracy.
You were made African leader among others to test your point of views and insights if you can be prosperous if you execute them or not.
If you were to succeed out of western or eastern assistance without consulting your own, then then the creator wouldn't have made you black from birth,you black leader for reason of be aided by other to be successful in all of your attempts.
USA ist Terrorist.
Trump is satanic period why should African leaders ly on western demands no way, illegal migrants why does Trump seek permissions to work for its people?,,, it's like Africa belongs to us then kill us all and take our lands period
