A world of advice from the U.S., Canada, Britain.(Chicago Tribune)
As of last week, the U.S. State Department had updated its "Travel Warnings" on the Kyrgyz Republic, Indonesia, Turkmenistan, Yemen and Pakistan in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington Sept. 11.
The Travel Warnings status is the State Department's most urgent, if vaguely worded, recommendation that American citizens avoid travel to that country.
Other countries on the list are: Afghanistan, Albania, Algeria, Angola, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Burundi, Central African Republic, Colombia, Congo (former Zaire), Guinea-Bissau, Iran, Iraq, Israel/West Bank/Gaza, Lebanon, Liberia, Libya, Macedonia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Solomon Islands, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Tajikistan and Yugoslavia.
Another 25 "Public Announcements" are in place for other regions and nations. Public Announcements come across as somewhat less serious than Travel Warnings and are issued only for a limited time.
However, they may include information about terrorist threats or other significant risks and travel disruptions for Americans.
Since Sept 11, Public Announcements have been added or updated for Uzbekistan, Rwanda, Belgium and Nepal. A Worldwide Caution also appears on the list of Public Announcements.
Both lists are subject to frequent changes and updates. For the latest, contact the U.S. State Department by phone at 202-647-5225; by fax at 202-647-3000; or at travel.state.gov
