Trump prepares deportation of 9,000 migrants to Guantanamo
US administration aims to empty detention centers on the ground. According to Politico, deportations will begin as early as Wednesday
The Trump administration has decided to transfer about 9,000 migrants to Guantanamo, with the aim of relieving pressure on detention facilities on U.S. soil. Politico reported this, citing official documents that the operations could begin as early as Wednesday.
The move represents an unprecedented escalation in the immigration policy of the president, who in recent days has already ordered mass expulsions in Los Angeles and announced the extension of the measure nationwide. The White House justifies the move with the need to free up space in detention centers, many of which are overcrowded.
Guantanamo, historically used for detainees accused of terrorism, would thus return to center stage with a radically different function. Civil rights lawyers have already raised strong doubts about the legality of the transfer, calling it “an extreme and unacceptable measure.”
The plan comes amid rising tensions in the United States: protests against the government’s migration policies have spread from Los Angeles to San Francisco, New York, Seattle and other major cities, while the president has also threatened the use of force during upcoming demonstrations in Washington.
According to Politico sources, the relocations will be handled under close military surveillance, with the cooperation of the Defense Department, although it is not yet clear whether the migrants will be subjected to a form of temporary or indefinite detention.
Meanwhile, California has asked a federal court to block the deployment of troops decided by the president, calling the current measures “an unconstitutional abuse of power.”
Trump’s move has already ignited national debate and risks turning into a new institutional clash between the federal government and Democratic states.
