Iran has underlined the chaos in US internal and foreign policies, rejecting as shaky Donald Trump's new travel order ban against the nationals of 6 Muslim states.

"The US president has had no experience in the internal and foreign policy fields and we are witnessing turmoil in the US internal and foreign policies," Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for European and American Affairs, Majid Takht Ravanchi said on Tuesday.

Noting that Trump's endorsement of an executive order on Monday blocking citizens of six predominantly Muslim countries, including Iran, from entering the United States shows that he and his team have not studied the foreign policy issues thoroughly, Ravanchi said, "We reject the new executive order and believe that its bases are shaky."

Takht Ravanchi underscored that Iran's latest decision in reaction to the previous US travel ban order is still in place.
Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif warned early February that his country had stopped granting entry visas to the Americans in retaliation for the Donald Trump Administration's travel ban against citizens of seven Muslim countries, including Iran.
