US EditionTrump administration weighs sending migrants to Libya and Rwanda, CNN reports
- The Trump administration is considering sending migrants with criminal records from the U.S. To Libya and Rwanda as part of a new deportation strategy.
- This plan stems from early administration diplomatic efforts begun soon after assuming office, including a note sent to many countries to gauge interest in deportation cooperation.
- Rwanda has already accepted one refugee deported from the U.S., offers social support like stipends and job assistance, and has experience with similar agreements, such as its 2022 deal with the U.K.
- Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated at a Cabinet meeting that they seek countries to take 'some of the most despicable human beings,' aiming to send them far to prevent reentry, while recent federal court rulings have blocked some deportations.
- No final decisions have been made, and the plan may face legal challenges due to concerns over the countries' human rights records, especially regarding Libya, reflecting a significant escalation in immigration enforcement.
