Iran says over 50 nationals to return from US after Trump immigration crackdown

Iran said Sunday over 50 of its nationals were to return from the United States, with President Donald Trump pursuing a crackdown on immigration. According to a media, the group is expected to arrive in Iran later on Sunday, after a stopover in Kuwait.

Iran and the United States do not have formal diplomatic relations, but Tehran maintains an office within the Pakistani embassy in Washington which deals with consular issues. US authorities this week paused green card and citizenship processing for nationals from 19 countries, including Iran, already subject to travel restrictions announced in June.
