El Salvador Offers to Detain U.S. Deportees and Imprison U.S. Convicted Criminals
Briefly

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced President Nayib Bukele's extraordinary offer to accept deportees, including violent American criminals and those currently incarcerated in the U.S., to El Salvador. This unprecedented agreement proposes that El Salvador will take in convicted criminals for a fee, allowing the U.S. to 'outsource' part of its prison system. However, U.S. officials clarified that American citizens cannot be deported and such an action would encounter significant legal challenges. Rubio's visit emphasized the need for stronger immigration measures amid ongoing political strife in Washington.
President Nayib Bukele has offered to accept deportees of any nationality, including violent criminals, into El Salvador's mega-prison, marking a unique migratory agreement.
