In an interview with ANI, Fabian stressed that the decision was against the 14th Amendment of the US constitution. He also mentioned that some expecting mothers were hurrying with the delivery in the US and stressed that it was not wise to take such a decision which can have consequences for just to have American citizenship.
On being asked about US judge's decision to temporarily block Trump's order restricting birthright citizenship, he said, former Indian diplomat said, «Now, Trump as the head of the executive wing passed an executive order, against which 20 or more states went to the court now and not only the states but mainly the Democratic ruled states. Now one federal district judge has said that he has stayed it. Now we can imagine the other judges might also do the same thing but finally it will go to the Supreme Court where it is believed mark my words it is believed we are not sure that a majority of judges are conservative or pro-Trump.»
