Migration policy: Supreme Court: Trump is allowed to deport a war law

The Trump government used an ancient law from war times for the deportation of Venezuelans. The Supreme Court of the United States has now made its judgment.

US President Donald Trump is allowed to deport alleged gang members again on the basis of a controversial war law from the 18th century. This was decided by the Supreme Court in the United States. The plaintiffs were imprisoned in Texas and were therefore supposed to complain there and not in the capital Washington DC, the judges judged.

The “Washington Post” wrote that the judgment with 5 to 4 votes did not respond to the legal basis of the lawsuit. It is clear that the migrants can submit their case in Texas again. The background is the deportation of more than 200 Venezuelans to El Salvador in March.
