Brasilia, Jan 2 (Prensa Latina) More than 3,000 Brazilians returned to the country last year, with the latest group of 124 arriving on December 31, according to data from the Ministry of Human Rights and Citizenship (MDHC), cited by local media.

Since the beginning of 2025, the “Here is Brazil” program has carried out 37 operations, guaranteeing the return of that number of vulnerable Brazilian nationals, mostly from the United States.

This represents almost double the 1,600 repatriations of 2024.

Such mass deportations were one of the campaign promises of US President Donald Trump, with repercussions also for Brazilians, who had already witnessed the increase in these measures.

In the case of the latest repatriation, after initial reception at the international airport of Belo Horizonte, capital of the state of Minas Gerais (southeast), part of the group was transferred to a hotel with a special assistance structure.

There they received food, hygiene kits, psychosocial support, medical and psychological assistance, as well as guidance and help for their journey to their cities of origin.

According to the MDCH, those who already had family in the area or decided to travel directly were also received at the airport terminal itself.
