Iran bans travel of US wrestlers to Iran
None
Iran's official news agency is reporting that US wrestlers have been banned from participating in the Freestyle World Cup competition in the western city of Kermanshah in response to President Donald Trump's executive order forbidding visas for Iranians.
The Friday report quotes Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Bahram Ghasemi as saying a special committee reviewed the case and: "Eventually the visit by the US freestyle wrestling team was opposed."
The competition is scheduled for Feb. 16-17.
