What is El Salvador's president offering to do with deportees and US criminals?
President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador is offering to accept deportees and US criminals, including American citizens, into the country's maximum security prisons. This controversial proposal raises numerous legal questions about jurisdiction and citizenship rights. If the Trump administration were to accept this offer, these individuals could be transferred to El Salvador's notorious maximum security facilities. The arrangement would potentially apply to both deportees from El Salvador and American citizens convicted of crimes in the US, marking an unprecedented international incarceration agreement.
