Trump's Immigration Ban Draws Mixed Reactions From The World Of Sports

The implementation of the Immigration Ban will see problems arise, the sporting world included. Disruption of signed athletic contracts dishonored. Retaliation from the anti-immigration ban is a possibility and could affect endorsements and sponsorships. The chain of events goes on until the last tile drops.
The temporary immigration ban states that the duration of this ordinance is up to 90 days. Syrian refugees have indefinite bans. This is specially specified on seven Muslim dominated countries namely: Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Somalia, Libya, Sudan, and Syria. Several athletes and sports personalities are from these blacklisted countries.

Reactions came in various forms. Difficulties would arise in all ports of entries. There are rumors that Iran will have a retaliatory ban on US citizens at their country. In fact, a Men's freestyle Wrestling event is slated this month and US protagonists will join the tournament. The athletes prepared, trained, sacrificed, and got their visas already and stand legally as of now. The hit-back began with Two US professional basketball players playing in the Pro-Iranian League. The players won't be back to their respective teams in Iran, reported ESPN.

There are ways to shield the world of sports from the immigration ban. The visa is the most effective way that sports personalities and athletes can participate in international events in the US. AN order came from the State Department that G1, G2, G3, and G4 visas from the specified banned countries could enter the United States of America. A P1 Visa is what athletes usually use to gain entry and is valid for five years, ABC News reports.

Some Americans are in a state of quandary. They offer their minds unsure of what they know so far. Do they really know the extent of the United States is facing? Learning the lessons from Europe, do these Americans ensure their compatriots that the Muslim influx is good for the whole country? These are the questions raised by some who understand the impact and future consequences that this ordinance brings to its people. Military intelligence shared that about 400 of these ISIS terrorists disguise themselves as refugees are now in the core of the Western World.
