President Donald Trump on Monday celebrated a victory for his oft-criticized travel ban, blasted President Barack Obamas handling of Russian election interference and met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

CLEAR VICTORY AT SUPREME COURT FOR TRAVEL BAN

The president rejoiced at a Supreme Court decision that will temporarily reinstate his travel ban targeting people from six Muslim-majority countries. Todays unanimous Supreme Court decision is a clear victory for our national security. It allows the travel suspension for the six terror-prone countries and the refugee suspension to become largely effective, he said in a statement.

The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on the ban in October. In the meantime, those subject to the ban who have some bona fide connection to the U.S. such as a relative in the country or an offer of admission to a U.S. university can still enter.
