That only affects official travel. Turkey has extensive water access, and thousand-year-old routes for moving anything anywhere.

And this travel ban doesn't affect asylum seekers who show up at the US Embassy, or the German border, or ... well, anywhere, really.

Ain't nothing more porous than a dictatorship's border.
