A Guardian investigation examines US agreements used to deport people to countries where they have no established ties. It follows individual experiences and explores the financial and diplomatic arrangements behind the removals.
The investigation includes accounts from affected migrants. Its findings should be read with the supporting reporting and responses in the original publication.
Transfers to unfamiliar countries
The investigation examines arrangements that send people to countries other than their own. Its accounts raise questions about legal status after arrival, access to assistance and the cost of the deals. The experiences described belong to the people interviewed by the original reporting team; individual cases should not be treated as interchangeable.
