The U.S. government is actively reaching out to countries around the globe, including those facing wars and human rights challenges, to accept immigrants expelled from America. Recently, diplomats sent a cable asking nine countries in Africa and Central Asia to take back non-citizen deportees, sparking a complex international negotiation. Countries like Angola and Ukraine have been approached, while Rwanda has accepted aU.S. payment of $100,000 for deportees and more discussions are planned. Costa Rica and Kosovo are among the seven nations already on board. Disturbingly, plans were made to send deportees to Libya and South Sudan, which were halted by a U.S. court ruling. This effort reflects a larger strategy of the Trump administration to find homes for deportees globally, indicating a willingness to partner with countries that may have previously been politically unviable.
