Rubio: US visa curbs target mass migration, not India

hindustantimes.com —

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the Trump administration's immigration restrictions are a global overhaul, not targeted at India, despite affecting Indian students and professionals. He blamed illegal and mass migration for the crackdown. Rubio acknowledged the impact appears large in India due to strong bilateral ties and high visa application numbers. He said the US welcomes visitors, students, workers, and investors who comply with laws, aiming to fix a system he claims was abused. The remarks come as India and the US near a trade deal, with Rubio calling ties positive. He said tariffs are not meant to punish India and that US relations with Pakistan won't come at India's expense.
