United States of America President-elect Joe Biden‘s administration has rejected the lifting of travel restrictions by the outgoing President of the United States, Donald Trump.
On Monday, Donald Trump rescinded entry bans imposed because of the coronavirus pandemic on most non-US citizens arriving from Brazil, the United Kingdom, and all European Union countries. The new travel guidelines will come into effect as of January 26, the White House said in a statement.

The alleviation of the ban may not last long enough for it to be implemented, though. President-elect Joe Biden gave the notion short shrift.
His spokeswoman said the new administration, set to assume office on Wednesday, “does not intend to lift these restrictions.” Jen Psaki tweeted: “In fact, we plan to strengthen public health measures around international travel in order to further mitigate the spread of COVID-19.”
