Mexico Rejects Flight with Deportees from the US

mexico city, mexico - Mexican officials deny landing permission to a US military plane carrying deported migrants, reasons unclear.

US Deportation Flight Denied Entry to Mexico

A US military plane carrying deported migrants was denied permission to land in Mexico on Friday, with reasons for refusal remaining unclear.

Earlier in the week, the Trump administration announced the revival of the 'Remain in Mexico' policy, requiring non-Mexican asylum seekers to stay in Mexico while awaiting visa clarity for the US.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum stated that Mexico did not agree to host the asylum seekers, as per the necessary protocol.

The Mexican Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized the strong relationship between Mexico and the US, particularly in migration cooperation, without directly addressing the plane denial incident.

White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt highlighted Mexico's acceptance of four deportation flights on a single day, following reports of the denied entry of the military plane.
