Obama deported more people than any other US president.
Elected US President Donald Trump announced his intention to deport millions of illegal migrants from 2 to 3, which caused a lot of disgruntled comments and unrest among migrants and officials.
Moreover, his predecessor, 44-th US President Barack Obama, has already managed to deport the same number of illegal immigrants and is the record-breakers among the heads of the American state in the number of people deported from the country during the presidency.
This is evidenced by statistics from the US Immigration and Customs Police, reports ABC News.
During the Obama presidency, from 2009 to 2015, 2,5 million were deported from the United States. This is more than any other president in the history of the United States has deported; moreover, this is more than all the presidents of the United States of the twentieth century combined have been expelled from the country.
Moreover, these statistics do not include “self-deported” - those who were denied entry into the country, as well as illegal migrants stopped at the border and returned to their country of residence without being placed in special detention centers.
These statistics do not include data for the 2016 year, as they are not yet available, so it can be assumed that the final number of deportees after the expiration of Obama’s presidency will be even greater.
At the same time, according to 2015, 91% of the deportees were foreigners convicted of various offenses.
