In the United States, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the State Department has likely revoked thousands of visas, emphasizing that visas are a privilege, not a right.

During a Senate hearing on Tuesday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the U.S. will continue to revoke student visas, reaffirming the Trump administration's hardline stance on immigration enforcement.

He indicated that the number of visa revocations so far is probably in the thousands and that the efforts are ongoing.

The revocations primarily targeted individuals involved in on-campus pro-Palestinian protests.

However, critics argue that this approach infringes on First Amendment rights to free speech.
