3 African nations agree to take deportees from the US.

What we know about the secretive deals

- By GERALD IMRAY

Rwanda has become the third African nation to enter into a deal with the Trump administration to accept migrants deported by the United States.

The Rwandan government said Tuesday it has agreed to accept up to 250 deportees from the U.S. for resettlement, but didn’t immediately give any more details, including when the deportees would arrive or what Rwanda got, if anything, out of the deal.

The U.S. has already deported eight men to South Sudan and another five to Eswatini that it said were dangerous criminals who were in the U.S. illegally.

Here’s what we know, and still don't know, about U.S. President Donald Trump's expanding third-country deportation program in Africa and the largely secretive deals the U.S. is striking. The U.S. State Department and the Department of Homeland Security haven't responded to requests seeking more details on the deals in Africa.
