US Massive Deportations Censured
Central American pro-human rights organizations condemned massive expatriations of migrants from the US, and called regional governments to urge Washington to stop it.

Activists from the Central American Council of Human Rights Ombudsmen (CCPDH) called for regional leaders to intensify contacts with US authorities to stop anti-immigrants raids in the US.

The CCPDH reported on Monday that forced repatriations unveiled incongruence of an allegedly developed society that needs immigrants but, at the same time, chase and criminalize them.

The text also encouraged Central American leaders to implement effective programs to welcome and incorporate expatriated nationals in the society.

The CCPDH groups human rights organizations Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, and Belize.
