South Sudan Agrees to Accept US Deportee

 Axios posted on 8 April 2025 an article titled "South Sudan Says It Will Accept Deportee Amid Rubio's Visa Revocations" by Avery Lotz.

South Sudan said it would accept a deportee from the United States who it previously denied entry to on the basis he was a Congolese national.  Secretary of State Marco Rubio then revoked all visas held by South Sudan passport holders. The government of South Sudan has now agreed to accept the deportee "in the spirit of the existing friendly relations between South Sudan and the United States."
