The United States has recently increased the number of deportations to third countries, with Guyana receiving six individuals deported from the U.S. This shift occurred during the administration of President Donald Trump, who aimed to carry out the "largest deportation programme of criminals in the history of America." Guyana's Foreign Secretary, Robert Persaud, announced on Saturday that Cuban and Afghan nationals had arrived in the South American nation after facing immigration issues.
According to Persaud, none of the deportees had criminal backgrounds. The removals are part of Trump's efforts to enhance the deportation program. Guyana reached an agreement with the U.S. after months of negotiations, allowing them to receive deportees for one year. This deal does not result in permanent resettlement, according to Persaud.
Currently, over 30 countries have established such agreements with the U.S., with 15 located in the Americas region.
