Jamaica signs agreement to accept migrants expelled by the United States

In June 2023, Jamaica signed a deal with the United States to accept migrants expelled from the U.S., sparking protests from the People's National Party and other groups. Concerns have been raised about national security, resource strain, and the lack of transparency regarding the agreement's details. The Jamaican government asserts that the U.S. will cover costs and that no migrants with criminal records will be sent, but independent confirmation of these claims is limited.
