After loading aircraft with Guatemalan children in the United States, then prevented from taking off by a federal judge’s decision to temporarily stop the removal of children, the Guatemali government said on August 31, which is responsible for its recent proposal to the Minister of Internal Security Christie Nayyv that the unstable worlds that were returned to their country.
In a statement published on the social media platform X on the evening of August 31, on the same day of the judge’s decision, the Guatemali government indicated that it wanted to prevent children from staying in shelters and detention centers and that it supports coordinated measures to reunite the Guatemali children with their families.

The government stated that the Guatemali government has plans to determine the needs of both the Guatematic children and intend to include them in social programs in their mother country, according to the government. The government claimed that all the measures taken in relation to unacceptable minors have taken human rights to children in mind and compliance with due legal procedures.
NPR asked the Guatemali government about the number of children who asked the United States from the United States, and whether all their parents asked to return them to Guatemala, an American lawyer indicated in a hearing on August 31.
The statement appears to have a realistic mistake. The Guatemali government said it had proposed the idea of sending unaccompanied minors to Nayyem while it was in the country in July. However, Naim visited Guatemala on June 26, after stopping in Costa Rica, Honduras and Paraguay on a tour of Central America.

The Ministry of Internal Security did not immediately respond to a request for suspension from NPR regarding whether Guatemala had proposed the return of unaccompanied minors to Guatemala while Nayyu was visiting the country in June.
Some lawyers who represent the Guatemali children to be deported differ with the Guatemala statement that the process of removing unacceptable minors did not ignore their rights. In an attempt to send children away without allowing them to end their asylum claims first, attorneys of the National Center for Immigration Law, a law firm that represents some Guatemali children in the United States, believes that the United States has violated both federal laws and the American constitution.
“At the death of the night at the weekend, the Trump administration separated from the children afraid of their family and tried to bring them back to the danger in Guatemala,” said Everen Olivaris, deputy chief of litigation at the National Immigration Law Center.
On August 31, the US boycott court was prevented from issuing a temporary restriction in emergency, on August 31, from removing any Guatemali Palace, who are not accompanied by US reservation for 14 days.
