Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem visited El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center on Wednesday and met with the Central American nation’s president, Nayib Bukele, to discuss deportation flights and removals of criminal illegal aliens from the U.S.
Noem’s visit follows the recent deportation of about 250 criminal illegal aliens from the U.S. to the detention facility in El Salvador. According to the Trump administration, the deported illegal aliens are members of the Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua.
William H. Duncan, U.S. ambassador to El Salvador, greeted Noem on the tarmac upon her arrival in San Salvador before she traveled to the detention facility.
