Travel ban may shut door for Afghan family to bring niece to US for a better life.

Mohammad Sharafoddin , his wife and young son left Afghanistan as refugees nine years ago .

He and his wife dreamed of bringing her niece to the U.S. to share in that bounty.

But that door slams shut on Monday as America put in place a travel ban for people from Afghanistan .

The Taliban have criticized Trump for the ban, with their top leader Hibatullah Akhundzada saying the U.S. was now the oppressor of the world. “ Citizens from 12 countries are barred from entering their land — and Afghans are not allowed either,” he said on a recording shared on social media. “Why? Because they claim the Afghan government has no control over its people and that people are leaving the country. So, oppressor! Is this what you call friendship with humanity?”.
