Trump Administration Deports First 20 Migrants to Liberia Under New Deal
Liberia will accept up to 1,200 deportees from the U.S. over the next year under the new agreement. Officials confirmed that Venezuelans and Cubans were among the first group sent to the West African nation. This initial transfer of 20 individuals to Liberia follows a bilateral arrangement established by the Trump administration.
The arrival of the deportees has triggered growing backlash in Liberia regarding the transparency of the program. Critics in the country have raised concerns about the inclusion of third-country migrants in the deal. The U.S. government plans to continue these flights until the 1,200 person quota is met.
