The United States has deported a group of people to Liberia as part of a deal to accept up to 1,200 foreign nationals. According to the Winnipeg Free Press, 20 deportees arrived in Liberia on Thursday.
The deportations are part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to send people to countries other than their own. PBS NewsHour reports that the administration has deported thousands of people to nearly two dozen countries, including about 10 in Africa, under often-secret agreements.
The deportees were sent to Liberia as part of a new deal between the US and the African country. The Winnipeg Free Press reports that Liberia will receive up to 1,200 migrants under this deal.
