Trump Has Options To Use If Countries Refuse To Take Back Migrants: Report

The incoming Trump administration is reportedly developing a strategy to deport illegal migrants from the United States, even if their home countries refuse to accept them.

NBC News reports that once President-elect Donald Trump takes office, countries unwilling to accept migrants who have an immigration judge’s deportation order may relocate them to Turks and Caicos, the Bahamas, Grenada, Panama, or other destinations.

Although the transition team has not yet confirmed the plan, it could significantly advance Trump’s pledge to implement the largest deportation initiative in U.S. history.

We still don’t know if Trump officials will allow these illegal migrants to stay and work in the countries they are deporting to, or what kind of pressure they might be applying to these host nations. A spokesperson for the Trump transition team did not respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller.

Foreign governments that refuse to accept deportees have long been a source of frustration for federal immigration authorities across multiple administrations. To avoid holding these individuals in detention indefinitely, many may be released back into the U.S., even if an immigration judge has ordered their removal, the outlet reported.

During President Biden’s administration, federal immigration authorities and major cities across the nation faced an unprecedented surge in illegal immigration. The situation became even more challenging in February when Venezuela, the second-largest source of illegal immigrants to the U.S., ceased accepting flights containing deportees.

Nearly 8 million Venezuelans have fled the country under the leadership of President Nicolas Maduro, a leftist authoritarian responsible for rampant inflation, economic instability, and political repression. Reports suggest that Maduro’s government is urging Trump to negotiate a deal that would see Venezuela accept deportees once more in exchange for a relaxation of U.S. sanctions.

However, it remains uncertain whether the incoming president is open to this proposal, the Caller added.

In the past, the Chinese and Cuban governments have also been resistant to participating in deportation flights from the U.S. Nevertheless, both nations have recently begun accepting more flights from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) once again, the report said.

During his first term in the White House, President Trump established safe third-country agreements with El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. These agreements aimed to deter asylum seekers by requiring them to seek refuge in these countries before applying for asylum in the United States.

But Biden suspended these deals immediately upon taking office as part of a widespread reversal of Trump-era immigration policies, which experts have repeatedly said contributed to the ongoing crisis at the southern border.

Upon taking office, Trump intends to implement the largest deportation program in U.S. history. Additionally, he has pledged to resume construction of the border wall, eliminate birthright citizenship for children born to illegal immigrants, reinstate the travel ban, and revive the ‘Remain in Mexico’ program—which required asylum seekers to wait in Mexico while their claims were processed in immigration court.

Ending birthright citizenship, however, would take a constitutional amendment, according to most experts.

For his part, Trump has already won a major legal battle ahead of taking office.

A federal appeals court said that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) can keep using a Seattle airport for chartered deportation flights, which is positive news for the incoming Trump administration.

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals threw out a 2019 local executive order that tried to go against President Trump’s immigration policies. The court said that King County, Washington, broke its contract by not letting deportations happen at King County International Airport, which is also known as Boeing Field.

The same appeals court also recently upheld that the federal government is sovereign when it comes to the issue of enforcing immigration laws and that states and cities are powerless to prevent it.
