More than 100 undocumented immigrants from Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan have been deported from the United States. They will first fly to Tashkent, from where the Kazakh citizens will return to their homeland, Orda.kz reports, citing Fox News.

There are 131 migrants on board the plane, which has already departed from New York bound for Tashkent.

These are citizens of Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan. It is expected that the citizens of Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan will continue their journey from Uzbekistan to their countries,
FoxNews reports. 

Uzbekistan entirely covered the costs of repatriating its citizens, marking the first such agreement with a foreign government since Donald Trump took office.

Uzbekistan's Foreign Ministry clarified that the group includes citizens who violated visa regulations or whose legal stay in the US had expired.

The US Department of Homeland Security called the deportation operation historic in a statement.

This landmark partnership is the latest in a long line of successful deals with foreign partners negotiated by President Trump and his administration. He put the American people first and successfully convinced Colombia to begin accepting migrants removed from the United States, developed a strong working partnership with El Salvador to lock up criminal illegal aliens and gang members, and turned Mexico into a willing ally in the fight against drug cartels, leading to the arrest of over 6,000 drug traffickers – the highest number of arrests in Mexico’s history These are just some of the successful efforts that reflect President Trump’s vision for strong diplomatic cooperation and a restored immigration system, ensuring that illegal aliens are returned to their countries of origin. We are just getting started,
the department emphasized. 

Recently, Kazakhstan's embassy in the US called on undocumented Kazakh citizens to leave the United States voluntarily
