Guatemala is reportedly prepared to work with President-elect Donald Trump on deportation efforts, potentially easing the removal of Guatemalan citizens and other Central Americans from the United States.

Guatemala is open to receiving citizens of other Central American nations who are deported from the United States, three sources familiar with the matter said, as the country looks to build a positive relationship with the incoming Trump administration.

Guatemala said it is open to engaging in a "constructive and respectful dialogue" with the new administration of incoming U.S. President Donald Trump, though no agreement has been made on accepting deported migrants.
