📝 Summary

US authorities are preparing to deploy military infrastructure across the country to house thousands of illegal migrants.

Start the formation of the “deportation hub” can be at the base of Fort Bliss in Texas. It can accommodate up to 10,000 people, according to The New York Times (NYT). The Administration (US President Donald) Trump is ramping up plans to keep illegal immigrants at military facilities across the United States. It is noted that illegal immigrants will expect to be expelled from the United States at the base in Texas, and in the future, the process that has been established there can be expanded to similar centers throughout the country. Fort Bliss is expected to be a model for other military installations in more than a dozen states. Trump has repeatedly called for tougher immigration policies. After taking office, he signed a decree on the introduction of an emergency on the border with Mexico, where in early February, 10,000 troops were sent to strengthen border detachments. At the same time, immigration and customs officers were given a daily quota of 1,200-1,500 arrests. In addition, Trump ordered the Pentagon and the Department of Homeland Security to expand the detention center at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba, increasing its capacity to 30,000 people. On February 19, the United States authorities decided to suspend the consideration of immigration applications from citizens of Ukraine and Latin American countries who received permission to enter the United States under programs initiated by former White House President Joe Biden.
