Xi Jinping lands in Washington with Trump waiting on the tarmac

On the eve of Chinese President Xi Jinping's arrival in the United States for a crucial summit with President Donald Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced measures to restrict visas for individuals involved in or benefiting from birth tourism. Rubio stated that by limiting visa issuance to those profiting from this fraudulent practice, the US would send a strong message that it will not tolerate foreigners exploiting its immigration system and violating the sanctity of US citizenship.

The crackdown on birth tourism, a practice often associated with wealthy Asians, comes in response to the Supreme Court's recent ruling blocking Trump's attempt to restrict constitutional birthright citizenship. The State Department has introduced an online portal for citizens to report suspected visa fraud and misuse. The administration has also established a task force to end birth tourism, following a series of measures aimed at curbing the practice after the Supreme Court decision.
