South Korean Hyundai workers head home after Trump's delay | US Immigration Crackdown

Описание: Buses believed to be transporting hundreds of South Korean workers recently arrested in an immigration raid arrived at an Atlanta airport on Thursday (September 11) ahead of their departure. South Korea has chartered a plane to bring some 300 detained workers home. The plane is now scheduled to leave the U.S. later in the day. Unlike other U.S. deportations, the workers were not handcuffed upon their departure - satisfying a key demand from South Korea, which has been horrified by the raid, particularly by the use of armoured vehicles and shackles. U.S. President Donald Trump offered to allow hundreds of South Korean workers arrested during an immigration raid to stay in the United States, but only one has opted to remain, South Korean officials said on Thursday. The workers were arrested last week along with more than 150 others at the Georgia construction site of a $4.3 billion Hyundai Motor and LG Energy Solution project to build batteries for electric cars.
