Donald Trump’s Muslim ban has caused controversy around the world since it was unveiled on Friday.
But despite thousands protesting his decision across the USA and the fierce criticism he received, Trump remains defiant in his latest tweet.
He tweeted: ‘Our country needs strong borders and extreme vetting, NOW. Look what is happening all over Europe and, indeed, the world – a horrible mess!’
Now it’s not only about America; people across the world have been reacting to the ‘Muslim ban’. Ordinary people, politicians, celebrities and public figures expressed their disappointment and harshly criticized Trump on their Twitter accounts.
Below, are some reactions towards #muslimban on Twitter.

It's disheartening to deal with a #MuslimBan on one end and mosques being burned down or turned into a murder scene on the other.

One of the other reasons I oppose the #MuslimBan is that I feel it's prime effect is persecuting innocent refugees.
