Buenos Aires, Feb 5 (UNI) Ecuadorian president Daniel Noboa has said that the country's government will provide financial and other kinds of assistance to all Ecuadorians returning from the US.
"To our returning migrants, I would like you to know that Ecuador is waiting for you with arms open. That is why we have developed a number of measures to support you and facilitate your reintegration," Nobos said on X on Tuesday.
The measures include the distribution of $470 per person per month for three months to help the returnees "reintegrate," training and scholarship programs, as well as "comprehensive assistance to Ecuadorians in unusual situations in the US," he added.
"Ecuador is your home. Here, together, we will create a country that you have gone to find. Here we take care of our own. Welcome to New Ecuador," the post continued.
On January 20, on his first day back in the Oval Office, US President Donald signed an executive order to immediately stop the penetration of undocumented migrants into the US and begin the process of deporting millions of them back to their countries of origin. Trump has declared a national state of emergency in response to the crisis on the southern border.
On January 29, "border czar" and retiring ICE Deputy Director Tom Homan said more than 4,000 immigrants had been deported from the US in the first week of Trump's presidency. UNI SPUTNIK ARN SSP
