It is quite unfortunate that there are strains between certain countries and the U.S. But it's important we respect other countries' policies while traveling, even if we are not used to it.
This is why I am happy I am dual citizenship so I can leave my American passport in my luggage and whip out my other passport which other countries allow. Cuba is chill I have been there before, everyone is friendly. And it’s like living in 1950 is so retro and cool
The DPRK - a.k.a. North Korea - closed its borders to all foreign tourists after the outbreak of the COVID pandemic, but prior to that - at least, as of 2019 - the DPRK did not have a ban on American tourists. In fact, it is the U.S. government which has banned its citizens from travelling to the DPRK, and any American who visits the DPRK are liable to be fined (or worse) by the U.S. government. True, the DPRK places a lot of restrictions on tourists - but that is applicable to all tourists, not just American tourists. And no, you do not need an authorization from the North Korean government to talk to the locals; you are not stopped from taking photographs (except in certain situations e.g. when trying to photograph military installations); and no, the North Korean authorities do not confiscate your electronics at the airport. I had been to that country in 2018, and I did come across at least two American tourists; my electronics stayed with me during the whole trip, and I came back home with hundreds of photographs. The propagand needs to stop,
Immigration should reflect the attitudes of the countries people are coming from. #NoCCPinUSA #NOForeignPropertyHoldings #CLOSEtheBORDERS #DEPORTdefundJihad

Interesting
I would add Palestine and Israel on that list as well.
