US, Uganda Strike Deportation Agreement
The United States has reached a bilateral deportation deal with Uganda, as part of its crackdown on illegal immigration, according to documents obtained by CBS.
Under the agreement, Uganda has agreed to accept African and Asian migrants who claimed asylum at the US-Mexico border, provided they have no criminal history. The exact number of migrants Uganda will take remains unclear.
Human rights campaigners have condemned the policy, warning that deported migrants may face danger in countries that are not their homeland.
The move forms part of the Trump administration’s broader effort to secure deportation arrangements with nations across multiple continents, including agreements with Honduras, Paraguay, and Rwanda.
