US to deport Vietnamese immigrants

About 6,200 Vietnamese are included in the deportation list of the US, most of them unauthorized migrants and tourists.  A repatriation agreement between Vietnam and the US provides that Vietnamese nationals who migrated to the US after 12 July 1995 and violated the country’s laws will be deported.
