Chad, imetangaza kusitisha utoaji wa visa kwa raia wa Marekani kama hatua ya kulipiza kisasi, baada ya kugundua kuwa imewekwa kwenye orodha ya mataifa 12 ambayo raia wake wamepigwa marufuku kusafiri kwenda Marekani.
"Chad haina ndege za kutoa wala mabilioni ya dola ya kugawa, lakini Chad ina heshima na utu wake," aliandika Rais Mahamat Idriss Déby Itno kupitia ukurasa wake wa Facebook (kwa Kifaransa) siku ya Alhamisi.
Barani Afrika, nchi nyingi ndizo zimeathirika zaidi na marufuku hiyo ya kusafiri iliyoanzishwa na Rais wa Marekani wa wakati huo, Donald Trump — ambapo mataifa saba kati ya 12 kwenye orodha hiyo yanatoka Afrika.
Amri hiyo inawazuia raia kutoka Chad, Congo-Brazzaville, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Libya, Somalia na Sudan — pamoja na Afghanistan, Myanmar, Haiti, Iran na Yemen — kuingia Marekani.
Pia, kutakuwa na vikwazo vya kusafiri kwa raia wa Burundi, Sierra Leone, Togo, Cuba, Laos, Turkmenistan na Venezuela – ambapo hawataruhusiwa tena kuingia Marekani kwa baadhi ya aina za visa.
"Hatutakubali watu wanaotaka kutudhuru kuingia nchini mwetu," alisema Trump kupitia video aliyopakia kwenye mtandao wa X.

The central African nation of Chad says it is suspending all visas to US citizens as a matter of "reciprocity", after learning that it is one of a dozen countries whose nationals are banned from travelling to the US.
"Chad has neither planes to offer nor billions of dollars to give, but Chad has its dignity and pride," continued President Mahamat Idriss Déby Itno in a Facebook post (in French) on Thursday.
Africa is the continent worst affected by the travel ban announced by US President Donald Trump, with seven of the 12 countries on the list.
The order prohibits people from Chad, Congo-Brazzaville, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Libya, Somalia and Sudan - as well as Afghanistan, Myanmar, Haiti, Iran and Yemen - from entering the US.
In addition, there will be travel restrictions on nationals of Burundi, Sierra Leone, Togo, Cuba, Laos, Turkmenistan and Venezuela - they will no longer be able to travel to the US on certain visas.
"We will not allow people to enter our country who wish to do us harm," Trump said in a video posted on X.
