The Situation: El Salvador's President Bukele made a bold offer to accommodate US criminals, including American citizens, in their 40,000-capacity Terrorism Confinement Center during a recent meeting with Secretary of State Rubio. This groundbreaking proposal was part of broader discussions on immigration enforcement.
Significance: This contentious proposition is expected to encounter legal obstacles since the US is legally unable to expel its citizens. The agreement entails El Salvador receiving deportees of all nationalities, triggering apprehension over human rights violations related to prison standards and inmate treatment.
