الولايات المتحدة تثير غضبًا عالميًا بترحيل المهاجرين الجنائيين إلى الدولة الأفريقية الصغيرة إسواتيني

The Trump administration has expanded its controversial third-country deportation policy by sending five immigrants convicted of serious crimes—originally from Vietnam, Jamaica, Laos, Cuba, and Yemen—to Eswatini, a small African kingdom where they have no ties. This move has triggered widespread condemnation from Eswatini's opposition, civil society, and international human rights groups, who accuse the U.S. of using the country as a 'dumping ground' for unwanted deportees. Eswatini's government says the men are being held in solitary confinement and plans to repatriate them, but the process remains unclear. The deportations have also surprised diplomats and angered the home countries, some of which deny refusing their nationals. Critics argue the policy violates human rights and sets a troubling precedent for international migration and deportation practices.
