Kosovo starts accepting third-party deportees from the US

Kosovo accepted one or two migrants under a U.S. deportation deal covering up to 50 people, granting temporary protection and ensuring their rights and integration.

  • Kosovo has begun accepting migrants the United States wants to deport under a one-year accord, according to Prime Minister Albin Kurti in a Kanal10 interview.
  • The one-year accord was described by Kosovo's government as a gesture of thanks for U.S. support, and Kurti's government has since fallen with a new election set for December 28.
  • Kurti said Kosovo agreed to initially accept 50 deportees, with only one or two arriving so far, adding `We are accepting those that the U.S. did not want on their territory`.
  • The move reinforces particularly strong relations with Washington, as Kosovo, which supports U.S. backing for independence, begins accepting deportees under a U.S. accord.
  • Kosovo, a Balkan country of 1.6 million people, has signalled interest in receiving deportees from Britain, supporting Washington’s search for partners to handle record-level deportations.
