Two weeks ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s second inauguration, Mexico continues dissolving attention-grabbing migrant caravans and dispersing migrants throughout the country to keep them far from the U.

The number of migrants arrested illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border in December was lower than when President-elect Donald Trump ended his first term in 2020, according to preliminary figures shared with Reuters,

Since last month’s US presidential election, five migrant caravans have formed in southern Mexico. The region is facing a new influx of migrants. While some attempt to cross Mexico on their own, others prefer to wait for appointments with American migration agents.

Donald Trump’s newest border czar says he is beginning talks with other nations in hopes to find a country that is willing to provide refuge for displaced migrants whose home nations won’t take them back.

The Mexican government is working hard to break up migrant caravans trying to make the treacherous journey north to the U.S. ahead of President-elect Trump’s inauguration in less than two weeks' time.

Migrants trying to reach the U.S. have been left stranded in the resort city of Acapulco, which after Hurricane Otis is one of the most dangerous places in Mexico.

Many migrants, misled by promises of permits and support, face limited resources, unsafe conditions, and difficulty continuing their journeys.View on euronews
