Donald Trump Muslim Ban in USA Sparks Global Outrage

The Muslim ban in the USA has sparked outrage across the globe. Donald Trump the 45th President of the US in his first week has shocked people all over the world.

As if his proposal for a wall between the USA and Mexico was not enough, he has now banned 7 countries from entering the USA and frozen their refugee programme for the Syrians who have already been through months of checks.

Donald Trump said that the following 7 Muslim-majority nations:
