Rubio said after signing an civilian nuclear deal with the Foreign Minister of Al Salvador, ‘President Bukle has offered the most unprecedented and extraordinary migration agreement in the world. He also said that he is also ready to take the most dangerous criminals of America in his jails, whether he is a American citizen or a legal resident.
