I found it suspicious about his visa because since when do U.K. or EU citizens need a Visa to enter the US?

Now it sounds like his global entry was canceled. I have global entry. All it does is allow me to skip customs and I only got if after a very in depth background check and paying $105. It has nothing to do with your ability to enter the country. I would not be surprised that protocol is that any Interpol flagging causes an immediate freeze for review.

If anyone has information about it being an actual visa conflict please correct me.
