U.S. bound migrants accept deal for Mexican visas
December 2, 2021
Thousands of migrants left the southern Mexican city of Tapachula and headed northbound. The migrants walked about 30 miles from Tapachula to Mapastepec until one of the caravan’s organizers made a deal with the Mexican government. Mexico’s National Migration Institute stated that authorities and the migrants reached an agreement for resettlement. Mexico offered the migrants humanitarian visas and housing in shelters run by Mexico’s social welfare institute, as long as they remain in the states in which they are resettled. The migrants agreed to stay in central and southern Mexico, away from the borders.
