President Trump signs executive order restricting immigration.

Newly elected US President Donald Trump has just signed an executive order severely restricting immigration and refugees from Muslim-majority countries to the United States.

True to his campaign promise of "thorough background checks" to prevent ISIS militants from entering the US, President Trump said that America will only accept those who truly love Americans.

The leader said: "I am implementing rigorous screening measures to prevent Islamic terrorists from entering America. I don't want them here. America only accepts those who truly support and love the country and the American people."

The details of the executive order are not yet clear, but it is expected to be released by the White House tonight.

The new US president also stated specifically that Syrian Christians would be given priority when applying for asylum.

In an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network, the American leader said that most Syrian Christians have been successful in obtaining asylum.

However, some legal experts argue that President Trump's stance could be considered a violation of the U.S. Constitution.
