Kosovo agrees to accept U.S. deportations of migrants from other countries

The European country of Kosovo has agreed to a Trump administration request to allow the U.S. to deport a small group of migrants to the landlocked Balkan nation who are not from there, U.S. and Kosovar officials told CBS News. 

Officials in Kosovo, Europe's youngest country, agreed to host 50 deportees from other countries, the latest agreement in a broader and aggressive effort by the Trump administration to convince countries around the world to accept migrants who are not their citizens.

In a statement to CBS News, Kosovo's embassy in the U.S. confirmed the deportation agreement.
