Washington, DC – US authorities have sparked widespread controversy after revoking the visa of a Nobel Prize-winning author of literature. This came after statements he made that were described as “offensive” to US President Donald Trump.

Informed sources said the writer was surprised by an official notification that his visa had been canceled days before his visit. He was scheduled to participate in a series of literary lectures at several American universities. The reasons for this were not officially explained.

The decision came after statements made by the writer during a press interview circulated online. In the interview, he criticized what he described as “the decline of democratic values ​​under Trump,” arguing that American political discourse had become more divisive and hostile to free culture.

The decision sparked widespread reactions in literary and academic circles. Some considered it an infringement on freedom of opinion and expression, while others saw it as a political move carrying domestic messages ahead of the upcoming elections.
