πΆββοΈπ Small migrant caravan heads north from Tapachula, unlikely to reach U.S. border, activists say
Edgar H. Clemente, AP.- A small migrant caravan of about 1,500 people left Tapachula, Mexico, on Sunday, heading toward the U.S. border. Migrants, including many from Venezuela, Cuba, and Haiti, have avoided the intense heat by traveling at night. This caravan follows two others that Mexican authorities dismantled in November. Despite their initial goal of reaching the U.S., some migrants now consider staying in northern Mexico, hoping to find work in industrial cities like Monterrey. The caravanβs future remains uncertain as many fear changes to U.S. asylum policies under President-elect Trump, including the potential elimination of the CBP One app. This app currently helps migrants schedule asylum appointments, a process that could be jeopardized after Trumpβs inauguration. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has pledged to handle migration before it reaches the U.S. border, aiming to avoid trade repercussions from tariff threats.
