Human Rights Watch asks us to lift the extraterrestrial enemy law – lawyer

Human Rights Watch (HRW) issued a 59-page report on Thursday, in which the United States was supposed to remove the law on alien enemies.

HRW emphasized that the US obligations under international law had changed drastically since the law about alien enemies. The organization said: “T]He is a party to numerous human rights contracts that oblige the government to ensure the respect for fundamental rights, including the proper procedure and freedom of discrimination, and ensure that people are not sent to countries in which they are probably exposed to persecution or torture.”

HRW argued that the action was obviously associated with these goals. It is important that the right group found that President Donald Trump's administration used the law to aim for individuals without proper legal proceedings, as is required by the US immigration law. Among the nine recommendations of HRW to various leaders, departments, councilors and governments was an application to the US Congress, which claimed the immediate cancellation of the law.

The law of 1798, which was adopted as part of the broader extraterrestrial and aspiring laws, authorized the president, persons who were citizens or subjects of an enemy nation to recover, back up and remove, back up and remove during a declared war or as an invasion or robber attack against the USA. The Trump administration is the first government in US history to refer to the actions outside a time of the war.

In March 2025, the Trump government used the law to deport at least 200 Venezuelan citizens in El Salvador to a maximum security prison. Trump referred to the 227-year-old act “to reduce and reduce every criminal criminal on migrants”, especially members of the transnational criminal organization Tren de Aragua. The majority of those who were sent to the Salvadoran Mega-Prison have no past or criminal charges. The UN previously commented on the fact that these people are subject to human rights violations in El Salvador. An HRW commentator also recently noticed that prison conditions are overcrowded and “dirty and due to illness” and that verified reports about “dark prison conditions, torture and death” were verified.
