On the 30th of last month, former U.S. President and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump was seen making a fist to his supporters upon his arrival at Trump Tower after a trial at the Manhattan Criminal Court in New York.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump, convicted in a trial related to the hush money case, may face travel bans in key allied countries, including South Korea, Japan, and the United Kingdom.
On the 3rd, People magazine reported that if Trump were to succeed in his re-election bid in this November’s election, he would require special permission to enter some major countries for diplomatic relations.
According to the population data analysis company World Population Review (WPR), 38 countries, including the United States, prohibit the entry of serious criminals, and travel restrictions are enforced regardless of passport possession after a guilty verdict. These countries include South Korea, Australia, Canada (which is set to host the G7 summit next year), China, Israel, and Mexico, among others.
Former President George W. Bush, who was arrested for drunk driving in the 1970s, experienced travel restrictions while traveling to Canada for an official state visit during his term. He was only allowed to enter after applying for a special exemption.
However, People magazine assessed that the situations of Trump and Bush are somewhat different. The media outlet stated, “The crime (Bush) was classified as a misdemeanor; he admitted to drunk driving at the time of the arrest, paid a fine, and did not stand trial,” and added, “Whether Trump’s 34 serious crimes can be treated similarly is hard to say.”
