The Eastern European nation of Kosovo has agreed to host up to 50 migrants deported from the U.S. over a one-year period, reports confirmed on Wednesday.
The decision comes as the U.S. has increasingly pushed third-party nations to host deportees amid President Donald Trump's mass deportation promises.
"The government has expressed its readiness to participate, with the opportunity to select individuals from a proposed pool, provided they meet specific criteria related to the rule of law and public order," the Kosovo government said in a statement on Wednesday, according to Reuters.
