The President of El Salvador says he will NOT return Kilmar Abrego Garcia

In a case that has stirred international attention, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, also known as Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, was mistakenly deported from the United States to El Salvador, despite being a legal resident of Maryland. The incident has sparked controversy and diplomatic tension, especially after El Salvador’s leader says he won’t return man who was mistakenly deported.

The case gained momentum when Stephen Miller, a former Trump advisor known for his hardline immigration policies, weighed in, suggesting systemic failures in the current immigration system. Media outlets quickly picked up the story of the Maryland man deported in error, which has drawn criticism from human rights organizations.

Adding complexity to the situation, El Salvador’s president, while not directly naming Kilmar Garcia, has made it clear that his government will not comply with U.S. demands for repatriation. This stance puts the president of El Salvador at odds with international norms regarding mistaken deportations.

The story of Abrego Garcia—a man with no ties to El Salvador—raises serious questions about due process, immigration data management, and cross-border accountability. As the case unfolds, it may set new precedents in how such incidents are handled between countries.
