Trump complained that Guatemala's government broke off a deal with the U.S. that would require Central American migrants traveling into Guatemala to claim asylum there instead of elsewhere
President Donald Trump complained Tuesday that Guatemala's government broke off a planned safe third country agreement with the U.S., a deal that would require Central American migrants traveling into Guatemala to claim asylum there instead of elsewhere.
The tweets follow Trump's praise last month for Mexico’s attempts to intercept Central American asylum seekers as well as his announcement that Guatemala was getting ready to do the same. But last week, the Guatemalan government canceled a meeting between Trump and President Jimmy Morales, and the country’s top court blocked asylum deal talks from progressing.
