Devant la cour d'appel de Washington, le gouvernement a demande l'annulation d'une injonction qui interdit leur deportation au titre d'une loi de 1798.
A US federal judge denounced the treatment of expelled Venezuelans as worse than that inflicted by the Nazis. The government requested the annulment of an injunction prohibiting their deportation under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, which allows the expulsion of citizens from countries at war with the US. Over 200 Venezuelans were expelled to a maximum security prison in El Salvador under this law on March 15, before a judge issued a temporary injunction against these deportations.
