    Exclusive: U.S. to begin returning asylum seekers to Mexico on Friday - official

    Exclusive: U.S. to begin returning asylum seekers to Mexico on Friday - official

    January 24, 2019

    MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - The United States will return the first group of migrants seeking U.S. asylum to the Mexican border city of Tijuana on Friday, a Mexican government spokesman said on Thursday.


    Migrants from Central America are seen escorted by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials after crossing the border from Mexico to surrender to the officials in El Paso, Texas, U.S., in this picture taken from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico December 3, 2018.

    In a major policy change, U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration said on Dec. 20 it would send non-Mexican migrants who cross the U.S. southern border back to wait in Mexico while their U.S. asylum requests are processed.


    The spokesman, speaking on condition of anonymity, did not specify the nationalities of those to be returned to Mexico, although the policy was aimed at helping cope with rising numbers of Central Americans seeking asylum in the United States.
    The two countries have held two meetings to work out details of the plan to return migrants seeking U.S. asylum across the shared border. Mexico has said it will not accept anybody facing a credible threat in Mexican territory.


    The U.S. Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond for comment on when the program would begin, although a DHS official said the policy would not apply to certain vulnerable populations and unaccompanied minors.

    Serious doubts exist over whether Mexico can keep Central American asylum seekers who are fleeing poverty and crime safe, especially in border towns that are often more violent than the cities they left.


    It is unclear how Mexico plans to house what could be thousands of asylum seekers for the months - or years - it takes U.S. immigration cases to be heard. A backlog of more than 800,000 cases is pending in immigration courts.


    The program, dubbed Migrant Protection Protocols by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, is one of a series of measures taken by Trump’s administration aimed at making it harder for Central Americans to enter the United States under asylum laws.


    Trump argues that the asylum system is abused, calling a process by which many migrants are freed in the United States to await immigration trial “catch and release.”

    Last year, about 93,000 people sought asylum at the southern border, up 67 percent from 2017, according to U.S. government data.

    Empty out the detention centers, shut them down and send them back to Mexico.

    Load up all UAC's and hand them over into the care and custody of their President to take care of!

    Mexico let them in and they can house and feed them.

    AND TRUMP HAD BETTER NOT BEING GIVING MEXICO 20 MILLION OF OUR MONEY FOR THIS!

    WE ARE SICK OF THEIR DAMN EXTORTION!

    This was already supposed to be happening.

    Forgive me for not becoming overly excited because I suspect there will soon be a lawsuit with a request for an immediate injunction to stop it.

    TV 8 News San Diego just had video of vans going from the U.S. into Mexico with the first of the returnees. (Story to follow, when somebody types it up.)

    They are going to return 20 per day to Mexico.



    "He said the US embassy in Mexico had informed local authorities the policy would begin within hours with the return of 20 Central American asylum seekers at the San Ysidro border crossing between San Diego, California and the Mexican city of Tijuana.

    The US will continue presenting 20 people a day at that crossing, and eventually extend the policy to other points along the 3,145-kilometer (2,000-mile) border, he said."

    @ Mexico 'disagrees' with US returning asylum seekers
