The flight landed safely in the middle of the morning, the sun sometimes burst from the clouds of Guatemala city.
But instead of imposing taxes on international arrival, the airport’s military aspect went towards when the fighter jets screamed up, walking in training exercises.
When the doors of the plane opened, dozens of men and women were brought to the amendment, where a passionate Guatemala vice president, Krin Herira and other officials, welcomed them and then entered the reception center for the returning.
“Good morning!” A scream “How are you, Pacenos (Malik Main)? “
It was a chartered flight from the United States, an operation that received new focus last week after President Donald Trump’s inauguration and promises to remove millions of non -documentary immigrants.
If there was any embarrassment or hatred in the flight when the flight left Alexandria, Louisiana just before sunrise, none of them became clear when the migrant returned to Guatemala’s land, in many open shoes. Badalo – US officials usually take a lace. The safety process, and never returned.
All the adults of this flight – the refugee reception center was welcomed with cookies and coffee and efficient processing.
Harira told CNN that repetition flights have been an ongoing process, adding that it has not increased since Trump came to power. “The only difference was the use of military aircraft, such as one coming after Monday,” he said.
She did not want to discuss the use of military aircraft between Colombia and the United States on the weekend, saying that her focus is on her citizens.
“We are determined to their integrity and their basic rights,” said Herira.
The returning Guatemala had lived in the United States for some years and worked. Some were fluent in English. But they all entered without permission or documents and so were subject to deportation.
Immigrants left the United States as guilty, told us that they were handcuffed until they were out of the US airspace on a south -flight. But whether they were waiting to return to the house or not, their official reception was very hot, as if they were badly remembered. Some people stayed in handcuffs and were taken by the police, it will be expected that their country will face action for crimes.
But the majority of them, they sat down with breakfast because the names were called and temporary identity papers were presented. No “non -documentary”.
Officials said they could have the skills and abilities that they could find in their home and a good life, benefiting themselves and Guatemala.
After making a brief speech in the return hall, the migrants who returned praised Herira, but everyone has their own view of whether they will pay attention to the calls to stay.
Sara Tat Botoos lived in Alabama for 10 years, working in construction, roofing and car repair, as well as taking care of her two children, now adults and grandchildren.
She said she was fleeing Walmart with one of the grandchildren about seven months ago when she said the police pulled her and cited her not to put her on the car seat.
He said that after discovering his immigration status, he spent two months in prison in Alabama and then five months in Louisiana in immigration and customs enforcement custody.
Once the operation was taken back to Guatemala, he said that his first idea was to get out of an unprecedented gray sweat he wore and in his desi dress. And then to eat some good food.
The 43 -year -old Tat Botoz was waiting for his luggage. Only a handful of immigrants had suitcases for their things. Most other people waited for a big plastic sack in which everything they had taken from the United States.
When others received their phone on free power banks to call friends or relatives, the broken botos changed and went out on the road.
Another child of her, a daughter, was now 25 years old, who had never seen her mother since the age of 15.
Both women hugged each other for a long time, each crying.
Ever since the break -up was taken into custody and they were not contacted when they wanted to hold each other for a few minutes.
“Now it feels dangerous in the United States, saying that non -documentary immigrants can be picked up anywhere,” broken bootos told CNN.
Botoos told CNN for now that she wanted to go back to her indigenous community, about five hours away, and never left.
But Fidel Ambrosio said he had still seen his future in the United States.
He said he had been living there for 19 years, first arrived as a teenager and volunteered to speak in 2018 before returning to the north.
He has a wife, a four -year -old daughter and a son, who was born a few months before he was detained.
The 35 -year -old Umbrosio, who worked in the construction of Alabama’s Montgomery, was almost stunned when he returned to Guatemala.
When he was not about to send the criminals out of the country over most of the statements of Trump and his team, he was not even angry with why he was deported.
He insisted that “we are not guilty,” he said he does not consider his crime a serious crime.
The refugees that CNN had spoken were all detained while the Biden president, who was the president, went through the removal of him, which led him to the flight from Louisiana.
Embroesio told CNN that he would try to return to the United States. Legally, he said, he would have to wait 10 years before applying for a visa, but he said he could probably try in two or four years, whether it means traveling illegally And face the results.
He acknowledged, “If I never go back, I will try to bring my wife and children here.” “It will be very difficult.”
