The United States has announced the revocation of ALL visas for one nation that is refusing to accept the repatriation of its citizens.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced the decision to revoke all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders. This action reflects the Trump administration’s focus on strengthening immigration enforcement, aligning with its broader policy of holding countries accountable for cooperating with the repatriation of their nationals.
In a statement titled ‘Defending America’s Security through Visa and Travel Restrictions on South Sudan,’ Rubio said,
“It is time for the Transitional Government of South Sudan to stop taking advantage of the United States.”
“Enforcing our nation’s immigration laws is critically important to the national security and public safety of the United States. Every country must accept the return of its citizens in a timely manner when another country, including the United States, seeks to remove them.”
“As South Sudan’s transitional government has failed to fully respect this principle, effective immediately, the United States Department of State is taking actions to revoke all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and prevent further issuance to prevent entry into the United States by South Sudanese passport holders. We will be prepared to review these actions when South Sudan is in full cooperation.”
Rubio shared on X, “I am taking actions to revoke all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and to restrict any further issuance to prevent entry into the United States, effective immediately, due to the failure of South Sudan’s transitional government to accept the return of its repatriated citizens in a timely manner.”

Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau added, “Let there be no mistake: the Administration of @POTUS @realDonaldTrump is committed to robust enforcement of our Nation’s immigration laws, and expects all other countries to accept repatriation of their own nationals.”
“The Government of South Sudan has violated this obligation by refusing to accept one of their nationals certified by their own Embassy in Washington and repatriated to their country. Our efforts to engage diplomatically with the South Sudanese Government have been rebuffed.”
“Accordingly, the @StateDept under @SecRubio has suspended ALL visas from South Sudan. Effective immediately, all visa appointments are cancelled, no new visas will be issued, no existing visas will be effective, and hence NO ONE from South Sudan will be entering the United States on a visa until this matter is resolved.”
