In reply to the discussion: Trump confirms plan to declare national emergency, use military for mass deportations [View all]Eureka
(529 posts)I'm no expert in various treaties and agreements that may exist, but I don't understand how these "mass deportations" are supposed to work.....
The country these people are supposedly being deported to will need to accept the people back, and what if they don't?
Does the US Military invade Mexico and just dump them? I'm pretty sure the US invading a neighbor will not be welcomed by the rest of the world.
By rights Mexico doesn't need to accept anyone from (for example) Bolivia, so does the US need to invade Bolivia as well?
What if these people don't have passports? How is the country of origin ascertained or proven? I can't just turn up to my country of origin and say "I'm here, let me in!" without documentation.
I wouldn't be surprised if the incoming regime does something really stupid and for sure they aren't about respecting norms or protocol, but I can't see how this is anything except futile bluster because this can't be solved unilaterally without becoming the worlds largest international pariah.
If anyone can explain potential mechanisms I'd be super appreciative.
