El Salvador

CNN -  Sen. Chris Van Hollen said upon his return to the US from meeting mistakenly deported man Kilmar Abrego Garcia that he learned during his travel to El Salvador that “the Trump administration has promised to pay $15 million dollars to detain these prisoners, including the illegally abducted Kilmar.”

“My best information … to date, they’ve paid out more than $4 million of that $15 million,” the Maryland Democrat added.

Van Hollen continued that while he is aware of some sort of document between the White House and El Salvador’s government, he isn’t sure whether there is an official agreement that lists all the commitments.
