Mexico City. The flows of irregular migrants on Mexico’s border with the United States have been reduced to date by 76 percent compared to the historical maximum recorded in December 2023, Foreign Minister Juan Ramón de la Fuente reported this Friday.
The official presented at the daily press conference of President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo an assessment of the immigration situation in Mexico and highlighted the work of the intersecretarial commission of the government of Mexico, which was established during the mandate of former president Andrés Manuel López Obrador and which, he maintained, has operated successfully since the beginning of the present government.
The chancellor stressed at the National Palace the importance of the humanitarian mobility model, a strategy inherited from the last administration, which addresses the migration phenomenon in a comprehensive and multidisciplinary manner.
He highlighted that the model seeks to protect the rights of migrants throughout the entire migratory cycle: from their origin, during transit, upon arrival at the destination – whether permanent or temporary – and in the event of return to their country of origin.
He stated that on December 18, 2023, 12,498 encounters by the US authorities with irregular migrants on the border were recorded and that this figure has been decreasing since then to reach 3,002 encounters on November 5, which It means a reduction of 76 percent, according to figures from the United States Customs and Border Protection.
“This data is really very important because what it shows is that the model that Mexico proposed has many elements that now is not the time to discuss, but the model is working and we want it to continue working,” he said.
