The United States and Belgium said on Monday they had reached an agreement that will allow U.S.-bound passengers from Brussels to undergo U.S. customs and immigration checks before departing Europe.

The “preclearance” agreement will allow passengers to then proceed directly to connecting flights or to exit the airport after they land in the United States.

Most Americans are still barred from traveling to the European Union because of the high number of coronavirus cases, but there are some limited exceptions. The United States also bars most people who have recently been in the EU from traveling to the United States.U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers in Brussels will conduct the same immigration, customs, and agriculture inspections of international air travelers currently performed when passengers arrived in the United States.

Judge temporarily blocks U.S. ban on TikTok downloads from U.S. app storesA U.S. judge in Washington has temporarily blocked a Trump administration order banning Apple Inc and Alphabet Inc's Google from offering Chinese-owned short video-sharing app TikTok for download that was set to take effect at 11:59 p.m. Sunday. Why? China has keyloggers in it that record your passwords. This judge is either in China's pocket or woefully ill ignorant of China's predatory policies.
