Rubio Brokers Deal With El Salvador to Send Immigrants, US Citizens to Prisons There
Briefly

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced a controversial agreement with El Salvador allowing deportation of people of any nationality, including U.S. citizens. Critics have condemned the deal as 'bizarre and unprecedented,' claiming it violates international laws regarding migrants' rights. Despite assurances from the Trump administration about not deporting U.S. citizens, the plan has raised concerns among legal experts, who assert that deporting U.S. citizens, whether incarcerated or not, is illegal. This arrangement, involving a financial component for transporting deportees, raises significant ethical and legal questions about human rights protections.
Critics argue that the recent migratory agreement between the U.S. and El Salvador violates international laws and the rights of migrants, making it unprecedented.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio described the agreement as 'the most unprecedented, extraordinary migratory agreement anywhere in the world,' yet experts highlight its legality issues.
