Today, I am announcing a new visa policy under Section 212(a)(3)(C) (“3C”) of the Immigration and Nationality Act to support Bangladesh’s goal of holding free, fair, and peaceful national elections. Under this policy, the United States will be able to restrict the issuance of visas for any Bangladeshi individual, believed to be responsible for, or complicit in, undermining the democratic election process in Bangladesh. This includes current and former Bangladeshi officials, members of pro-government and opposition political parties, and members of law enforcement, the judiciary, and security services. The United States notified the Bangladeshi government of this decision on May 3, 2023.
Actions that undermine the democratic election process include vote rigging, voter intimidation, the use of violence to prevent people from exercising their right to freedoms of association and peaceful assembly, and the use of measures designed to prevent political parties, voters, civil society, or the media from disseminating their views.
The holding of free and fair elections is the responsibility of everyone—voters, political parties, the government, the security forces, civil society, and the media. I am announcing this policy to lend our support to all those seeking to advance democracy in Bangladesh.

They and their damn Bullshits Demo CRAZY where both arses washing their dirty linens all to see and laughed at their corruptions and sabotages at each other.
Every men and bimbos thought so intelligently of themselves.
Now kept changing their White House Inarticulate and Incompetence Spokespersons.
Painted Horrible Faces like the White Scoundrols White Faces of Wayang Charlatans of Old.
Black Face with purple and pink Massacres, oops Massacres.
In a sentence with so many pauses that indeed are lies.
The Banner behind them read as thus:-
"We Cheat, We Lied We Stole"
Plus many many mores of We Murdered, We Sabo, We Plunder"
Can add to the Hudreds, Thousands and Millions.
Unable to answer I will refer to the White House. Hello! You are now the White House Spokesperson. Still refer to the White House?
Should be I will refer to our Blinking Idiot Blinken. Our Sextary of Idiots.
Can the Global South do exactly the same back to USA?
I mean, there isn't free & fair elections in USA either, since the electronic & postal voting is highly susceptible to voting fraud. Non citizens can even vote as the only identification card is driver license, as the country don't have a national IC identity card.
