Donald Trump’s team is examining the possibility of deporting illegal migrants to Rwanda in a process similar to the policy of the Conservatives who were expelled.
While the deportation of illegal immigrants was a focal point of Trump’s election campaign, the exact details of how he intends to accomplish his goal of removing 20 million people from US soil are largely unknown.
However, one of the reported options is a ‘third party safe state’, similar to Rishi Sunak’s now-abandoned Rwanda plan, where migrants who cross the Straits illegally should be flown to Rwanda to seek asylum there.
A source close to the Trump camp told the Sun on Sunday: ‘Trump campaigned on a promise to crack down on illegal immigration – and he is determined to keep it.
‘His team looked at the Rwandan scheme. They’re thinking of deporting illegal migrants to Rwanda and other countries so they can’t stay on American soil.’
However, efforts to deport migrants to Rwanda may be challenged in court in the same way as the British government’s efforts.

The Mail on Sunday has also reported that in the Oval office after inauguration day Trump will immediately sign a series of executive orders, the most radical of which is to close the border.
Citing the immigration crisis, he will temporarily close the southern border to give officials a chance to clear a large backlog of cases.
Trump said Joe Biden’s administration allowed more than 10 million people to enter the U.S. illegally, bringing the total number of illegal immigrants to 20 million.
A source told the Mail on Sunday: ‘Trump is not a monster. He knew that many asylum seekers could die if they had to return to their countries of origin. There will be safe third party countries that will accommodate these people at a cost to the US taxpayer. But that would be the exception, not the rule.’
Mr Trump recently appointed Tom Homan as his border czar, with the former director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), having strong views on migration.
Earlier this year when asked if there was a way to prevent illegal adults from being separated from their US citizen children, he replied ‘yes, they could all be deported together.’
In addition, he warned: ‘Nothing is off the table. If you’re here illegally, you better look over your shoulder.’

Trump has become the first president in more than 130 years – and only the second in history – to win a non-consecutive second term.
The defeat of Vice President Kamala Harris marked a remarkable return for the second-term president, who left office in 2021 behind claims that he had attacked the US Capitol building, and who was indicted earlier this year on multiple charges. of business fraud.
The 78-year-old Trump will also become the oldest president ever to be inaugurated, beating President Joe Biden’s record by five months.
In the end, Trump won the electoral college by an 86-vote margin, sweeping all seven battleground states, and making significant gains in blue-collar cities and suburbs and among Latino and black voters.
