In a recent development, Panama has taken in almost 300 individuals from different countries who were deported under the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump. These individuals are currently being held in a hotel and are not allowed to leave until international authorities arrange for their return to their home countries.
Authorities have indicated that over 40% of the deportees are unwilling to return voluntarily to their countries of origin. Disturbing messages such as 'Help' and 'We are not safe in our country' were seen displayed on the windows of the hotel rooms where the migrants are being housed.
