GUATEMALA CITY (Reuters) – Guatemala will accept 40% more deportation flights from the United States, President Bernardo Arevalo said after a meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Wednesday.
Rubio said Guatemala had agreed to accept both Guatemalans and deportees of other nationalities, adding he had pledged support to the Central American country’s efforts to return people not from Guatemala to their homeland.
