Iran war draws in more countries as fighting escalatesAfter a few days of relative calm, the Iran war is escalating once again, and this time, more countries are in the mix.
The Trump administration has already sent 6,000 Cubans to Mexico, as well as smaller numbers to Eswatini, South Sudan, Paraguay, and Ecuador.
The negotiations make Uruguay the only South American country with a center-left government willing to work with the Trump administration on deportations.
As the second-smallest country in South America, Uruguay already hosts a diaspora of Cubans, between 20,000 and 30,000, as well as a relatively lax immigration policy.
Plus, President Yamandú Orsi may also see currying favor with the Trump administration as useful for the future.
