Iran has lifted a ban on the American wrestling team from entering the country for a World Cup competition.

The development was the sequel to a court ruling in the U.S which suspended a travel ban imposed by President Donald Trump.

Iranian foreign ministry spokesman, Bahram Ghasemi, confirmed the new decision to the ISNA news agency on Sunday.

Iran had on Friday said it would deny the American team visas, in response to Trump’s controversial order to ban citizens from seven Muslim-majority, including Iran, from entering the US.
