President Donald Trump says he has no plan to help a Salvadoran migrant who was living in Maryland get out of prison in El Salvador after he was mistakenly deported.
Bukele also showed no interest in sending Abrego Garcia back to the United States, saying "The question is preposterous. How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States?"
The Trump administration has deported hundreds of people, mostly Venezuelans, to El Salvador under the 1798 Alien Enemies Act.

00:00I mean, the question is preposterous. How can I smuggle a terrorist into the United States?
00:05I don't have the power to return him to the United States.
00:07But you could release him inside of Salvador.
00:09Yeah, but I'm not releasing, I mean, we're not very fond of releasing terrorists into our country.
00:13I mean, we just turned the murder capital of the world into the safest country in the Western Hemisphere,
00:17and you want us to go back into the releasing criminals so we can go back to being the murder capital of the world?
00:22No, that's not going to happen.
00:24How many illegal criminals are you planning on exporting to El Salvador?
00:28And, President Bukele, how many are you willing to take from the U.S.?
00:32As many as possible.
00:34And I just asked the president, you know, it's this massive complex that he built, jail complex.
00:40I said, can you build some more of them, please?
