Central American country to receive up to 25 migrants a day expelled as part of Trump’s immigration crackdown
The Costa Rican government has agreed to receive up to 25 deported migrants a week from the United States, the latest deal in the Trump administration’s unprecedented efforts to deport scores of people to “third countries”.
With the new agreement, Costa Rica seeks a closer alliance with Donald Trump’s government, which has been securing cooperation from other Central American countries in accepting deportees from other nations who have been detained by US immigration agents.
They have a very right-wing government that has been rolling back decades of progress the country has made. Democracy can be fickle, sadly.
