On Thursday, Mexico denied a U.S. military plane access to land, at least temporarily frustrating the Trump administration’s plans to deport immigrants to the country. According to two U.S. defense officials and a third person familiar with the situation, two Guatemala-bound Air Force C-17s, carrying about 80 people each, successfully flew deportees out of the U.S. on Thursday night. However, the third flight, which was scheduled to land in Mexico, never took off.
Although the flights to Guatemala proceeded without incident, the situation with Mexico remains unresolved. This event serves as a reminder of the intricate dynamics at play in international relations and immigration policy enforcement.
