#In the United States, the Supreme Court has upheld Donald Trump’s executive order banning travel from several predominantly Muslim countries — also called "travel ban". The court made its decisions in a 5-to-4 vote. It is the third and final version of this controversial executive order that was approved. The court’s conservatives said that the US president’s power to secure the country’s borders should not be undermined by his past contentious statements about Muslims, while the court’s liberals, led by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, strongly denounced the ruling. The decision endowed Trump with a major political victory ahead of the midterm elections.
