# The Department of International Relations and Cooperation has expressed concern about the recent arrival of dangerous criminals of various nationalities to Eswatini from the US. Last month, Eswatini announced that it had agreed with the US to house five most dangerous criminals in its prisons, with the possibility of over 150 terrorists following. The five men originate from Cuba, Jamaica, Vietnam, Laos and Yemen. The department’s spokesperson, Chrispin Phiri, says this could impact South Africa’s national security:
