The first flights carrying migrants deported from the United States to Colombia. The Colombian government confirmed on Tuesday that two planes
carrying migrants had landed. Some were reportedly shackled. A total of 201 migrants: 110 sent from
California and 90 from Texas were on board. Among the deportees were two pregnant women and more than 20 children. The cost to US taxpayers is estimated to be $100,000 to $700,000 per flight. The long-term costs and consequences of this program with Latin America, like many others over the last century, have not been estimated.
