US passport drops to 10th in global power ranking
The US passport has fallen to its lowest position since 2016, now tied with Iceland at 10th place in a global index. Experts say this isn't a sudden collapse but reflects other countries aggressively expanding travel access for their citizens. Singapore now ranks 1st, with Japan, South Korea, and the UAE tied for 2nd, as the US maintains strict immigration policies.
