#STATEMENT New US-Mexico migration agreement violates the right to asylum

Ago 11, 2021

  • Central American families expelled from US to Mexico-Guatemala border
  • The governments of the region must clarify terms of agreement

On August 9th and 10th, the Human Rights Observation and Monitoring Collective of the Mexican Southeast documented the arrival in Tapachula, Chiapas of one flight per day from McAllen, Texas, United States, transporting Guatemalan, Honduran and Salvadoran people expelled under Title 42.

On both days, the people—mainly women and families with children—were transported from Tapachula to Talismán, on the border with Guatemala, in National Migration Institute (INM) buses (four on the first day and eight on the second) escorted by a motorcade of National Guard vehicles. In Talismán they were abandoned on the border with Guatemala, as previously occured under the Migrants Protection Protocols policy. Up to now there has been no clarity regarding what administrative processes were followed in Mexico.
