Search giant Google’s India-born CEO Sundar Pichai has expressed his disappointment over the suspension of foreign work visas by US President Donald Trump. The US on Monday extended its ban on issuance of green cards and work visas, including the H1-B, for immigrants until the end of the year. According to estimate, the move would free up 525,000 jobs in the US, said an official from the Trump administration.
“Immigration has contributed immensely to America’s economic success, making it a global leader in tech, and also Google, the company it is today,” Pichai tweeted after the visa announcement.
