Visa Revocations Surge Under Rubio's Leadership Amid National Security Concerns**

Secretary of State Marco Rubio announces stringent visa revocations as part of a broader effort to maintain U.S. foreign policy integrity while combating criminal activities.**


In an unprecedented move, Secretary of State Marco Rubio claims to have revoked over 300 visas of foreign nationals, including students, due to their foreign policy views and alleged criminal behavior, a process he insists is crucial for national security.**


In a dramatic shift in U.S. immigration policy, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has revealed that he has revoked over 300 visas, primarily targeting foreign students and visitors whose views clash with U.S. foreign policy or who have engaged in criminal activities. Speaking from an Air Force jet while returning to Miami after a tour in the Caribbean, Rubio stated that he has been continuously signing letters for visa revocation since assuming office in January.

Rubio emphasized that he personally reviews each case to ensure any visa holder involved in unlawful conduct automatically faces cancellation of their visas. He argues that the measure is essential for safeguarding U.S. national interests. “If we had prior knowledge of their views or actions before issuing the visa, we wouldn’t have allowed their entry,” Rubio declared.

The secretary did not disclose the method by which cases are identified for revocation, citing ongoing investigations and the need for heightened vigilance. As part of this initiative, those who are permanent U.S. residents are also at risk, facing potential repercussions including the loss of green cards. Rubio’s approach has raised questions and concerns about its implications on international student communities and the broader immigration framework.
