US sends 20 deportees to Liberia, part of 1,200 migrants the country will receive under new deal
Summary by The Hill
The United States sent 20 deportees to Liberia, who arrived on Thursday as part of 1,200 migrants that the African country will receive under a new deal.
For its rabid deportation policy, the US government is looking for partners worldwide – and has found a particularly receptive third country in West Africa. Liberia's government speaks of a "gesture of a purely humanitarian nature."
