Belize agrees to host migrants seeking asylum in US

Belize agrees to host migrants seeking asylum in US under new "safe third country" agreement. The deal, subject to Belize Senate approval, allows deported migrants from the US to apply for asylum in Belize instead of returning to their home countries. Critics warn of potential harm to migrants, but Belize stresses strict security measures to protect national sovereignty. US State Department sees the agreement as a crucial step in ending illegal immigration and abuse of the asylum system, while Trump administration continues efforts to deport undocumented migrants.
