El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele offered for illegal immigrants – any citizenship – facing the deportation in the United States in order to be booked in his country’s prison system in exchange for compensation.
This proposal comes after the Secretary of State Marco Rubio On Monday, he met Bukele at his village house of Lake in front of San Salvador.
“We offered the United States the opportunity to outsourcing part of its prison system,” Bukele wrote on Monday night at X. “We are ready only convicted criminals (including convicted US citizens) to our mega prison (Cecot) in exchange for compensation. Compensation. It would be relatively low for now, but significant for us, which would make our entire prison system sustainable. “
Rubio said that Salvadrana president “agreed to the most interesting, extraordinary, extraordinary migration agreement anywhere in the world.”

“We can send them, and he will put them in his prisons,” Rubti told reporters, referring to illegal immigrants behind bars in US prisons. “And he was also offered to do the same for dangerous criminals who were currently in custody and serving their penalties in the United States, although US nationals or legal inhabitants.”
Although Bukele has expanded the offer to include violent American criminals, it is unlikely that part of the offer will actually happen, because it is illegally deported to American citizens. The US official said Trump’s administration is not planning to deport US citizens, but noted that Bukele’s offer was significant.
The proposal of El Salvador, known as an agreement on a “safe third country”, could be an option for members of the Venecuelan gang convicted in the United States if Venezuela refused to accept them, and Rubio said that Bukele offered to accept the detainees of any citizenship.
Bukele also said that he would restore all members of the Salvadorane MS-13 gang in the US and illegally promised to accept and close the criminal illegal foreigners from any country, especially those related to the Venezuel’s Band of the Time de Aragua.
Manuel Flores, Secretary General of the left -wing opposition party Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front, claimed that the “Safe Third Land” plan would paint the region as “the courtyard of the US Government to reject garbage.”
