Belize agrees to host migrants seeking asylum in US
WASHINGTON — The small Central American nation of Belize has signed an agreement with Washington to act as a "safe third country" for migrants as they seek asylum in the United States.Belize PM John Antonio Briceño said the deal — which must be approved by the Belize Senate — will mean that migrants deported from the US could apply for asylum instead of returning to their home countries.The US State Department called it "an important milestone in ending illegal immigration", and "shutting down abuse" of the US asylum system.The deal appears to be similar to one with Paraguay announced in August.This year Panama, Costa Rica, El Salvador and Honduras have also taken in people deported by the US.Human rights groups in the US and abroad have strongly criticised such deals, saying...

Demolition begins to replace White House East Wing with Trump’s ballroom
WASHINGTON — Demolition of the White House East Wing began Monday as President Donald Trump adds a $200 million, 90,000-square-foot ballroom.CNN observed an excavator tearing down portions of the East Wing, and close-up video and images captured areas of the roof torn down and an excavator tearing through the interior.Renderings released earlier by the White House showed that the ballroom, which the administration has said will be funded by Trump and other private donors, would be built over this area. Press secretary Karoline Leavitt said over the summer that the “state ballroom” would occupy space housing the East Wing of the executive mansion, where first ladies have traditionally maintained offices.The project fulfills a 15-year ambition by the president to construct an event...
