The program would focus on 40,000 migrants from Venezuela, Haiti, Nicaragua and Cuba who are in southern Mexico, Bloomberg reported, citing Mexican Foreign Minister Alicia Barcena. Migrants from those countries have been stuck in Mexico since May when the U.S. ended Title 42, a Trump-era public health order.
Migrants start walking north on their way to Mexico City from Tapachula, Chiapas state, Mexico on April 23.In an interview, Bercena said United Nations refugee agencies would review the eligibility before those who may qualify would have their applications processed by a mobile US consulate.
