Details of Secret Deals for Trump
A journalistic investigation has revealed that the United States deported over 25,000 migrants to third countries under secret agreements it inked with several nations starting from the beginning of Donald Trump's administration in January 2025. A total of $410 million was allocated for these operations, including $81 million allocated to countries that agreed to host the deported migrants, with the remaining funds going to United Nations relief organizations. By August 31, 2026, 25,447 individuals had been deported, most of them to Mexico, which received about 20,000 migrants, with agreements in place with 27 countries across Latin America, Africa, and the Pacific region. The investigation also uncovered that the Trump administration exerted pressure on African countries by imposing travel bans and restrictions, forcing them to host the deported migrants. Communications were maintained with 49 out of 54 African nations through an office established at the U.S. State Department in May 2025 specifically to manage negotiations, led by a former diplomat.
