According to sources close to the Republican nominee, Donald Trump, a new deportation plan is on the horizon if he becomes the next president of the United States. This plan would send migrants who cross the southern border with Mexico to a third country for processing. It seems that Trump has taken inspiration from a similar scheme implemented by the UK government in Rwanda, which has faced various challenges and high costs.
If elected, Trump has made it clear that he wants this new plan to be put into action from day one of his presidency. Although the specific third country has not been disclosed, it is believed that Guatemala may be a potential destination. In fact, Trump had already established a similar arrangement with Guatemala in 2020, which was later ended by President Joe Biden when he took office.
Deportation has been a central focus of Trump's 2024 campaign, with him even stating that he aims to remove 20 million people, which is about 6% of the US population. The first flights from the UK to Rwanda are expected to take off in early July, but due to ongoing legal challenges, they are expected to have less than 10 passengers. The UK Home Office has already detained migrants across the country in preparation for these flights.
In April, a failed asylum seeker became the first migrant to be officially sent to Rwanda from the UK, but on a voluntary basis after being paid £3,000 by the government. Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita, Trump's senior advisers, have stated that some allies have not fully understood their message, and the media has been too eager to speculate about a second Trump administration.
They have made it clear that unless a message comes directly from President Trump or an authorized member of his campaign team, any information regarding future presidential staffing or policies should not be considered official. It seems that Trump is determined to enforce his immigration policies, and only time will tell if this new deportation plan will come to fruition.
