Liberia agrees to accept 1,200 US deportees

Liberia has agreed to accept up to 1,200 foreign deportees from the US over the next year, calling it a humanitarian arrangement with no compensation. The first group of 20 arrives Thursday, and deportees will be free to leave or seek asylum. Liberia joins several African nations in such deals amid US crackdown on illegal migration.
