Honduran President Xiomara Castro says she could consider ending military cooperation with the United States if President-elect Trump follows through on his proposals for mass deportations.

The U.S. has managed the Palmerola military base (also known as Soto Cano Air Base ) in Comayagua , central Honduras , since the 1980s .

The move marks one of the first signs of international pushback and diplomacy in response to Trump 's flagship immigration policy.
