US EditionUS prepares to deport about 300 alleged gang members to El Salvador
- Under President Donald Trump, the U.S. Administration agreed to pay El Salvador $6 million to imprison approximately 300 alleged members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang for one year.
- The agreement, one of the first instances of El Salvador housing migrants from the U.S., followed discussions between President Nayib Bukele and Marco Rubio regarding housing migrants in El Salvador's prisons.
- The Trump administration even suggested El Salvador could house American citizens, although the U.S. Cannot legally deport its citizens to another country.
- Memos detailing the transfer did not disclose how the Trump administration identified the individuals as members of Tren de Aragua, a gang Trump repeatedly highlighted and declared a terrorist organization.
- El Salvador confirmed it would house the individuals for one year, pending the United States' decision on their long-term disposition, with estimated costs of $20,000 per prisoner annually, and a State Department document suggesting $15 million to house additional gang members.
