US deports nearly 2,300 Mexicans to Guatemala over Mexico’s objections
The Trump administration has ramped up deportations to third countries in an apparent bid to deter immigration.
The United States has deported nearly 2,300 Mexicans to Guatemala this year, as well as at least dozens to Honduras, according to official data. This marks a shift from the minimal transfers during the beginning of President Donald Trump's second term. Guatemala's President Bernardo Arévalo confirmed that the deportees are arriving in the country as part of a "transit stopover" before being returned to Mexico, with no individuals being under refugee or asylum status.
