US EditionCosta Rica receives first group of deported migrants under third-country agreement with US
The deal allows Costa Rica to take up to 25 migrants a week as the United States funds support and the IOM provides shelter.
- On Saturday, Costa Rica received the first group of 25 migrants deported from the United States under a bilateral agreement signed in March between the two countries.
- President Donald Trump's mass deportation program prompted the action, as the administration seeks to remove immigrants to third countries when their home nations refuse to accept them.
- The 25 migrants include citizens from Albania, Cameroon, China, Guatemala, Honduras, India, Kenya, and Morocco. "Upon entering the country, the migrants will receive primary care from the Professional Migration Police, with the cooperation of the International Organization for Migration ," the Costa Rican agency said.
- Democrats on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee released a report stating these deportation agreements cost American taxpayers millions of dollars, sometimes exceeding $1 million per person.
- Critics, including Democrats and human rights advocates, argue these deportations strand migrants in countries far from their homelands where they lack language skills or family connections.
