From Fox News: Two planes sent by Venezuela returned home Monday with nearly 200 Venezuelans who were in the U.S. illegally as part of President Donald Trump’s mass deportation plan.
The 190 migrants returned to Venezuela signals a possible ease in tensions between the two longtime adversaries and a win for the Trump administration as it seeks to have countries take back their citizens found in the U.S. without authorization.
The Conviasa airline flights arrived in the Venezuelan capital of Caracas from Fort Bliss, a U.S. Army base in El Paso, Texas.
“Two planes of illegal immigrants left El Paso today headed to Venezuela – paid for by the Venezuelans,” Trump envoy Richard Grennell, who oversaw the deportations, wrote on X.
Approximately 1 million illegal aliens from Venezuela crossed into the United States during the Biden administration, and Venezuela had refused to take them back.
However since Grenell visited Venezuela a few weeks ago, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has now agreed to take back their migrants.
Thank you, @realDonaldTrump.
