Mexico Stopping Caravan at Their Border and Asking UN to Vet Refugee Claims

Watch this plan still piss of leftists because they don’t get thousands of instant democrat voters in the deal.

For the record, I don’t like this plan at all. Sounds like a thuggish way for immigrants to try and bust to the front of the line into the U.S.

Trump has to hold fast on this and turn away everyone just to make the point that you don’t get to crash into our country if you organize a caravan.

The caravans will never stop.

Fox-

U.S. and Mexican officials have agreed on a plan to handle the approaching migrant caravan making their way up from Central America, a senior administration official told Fox News on Thursday.

Under the deal, which was developed over the course of several months, Mexico will request that the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) establish shelters along its southern border with Central America, the official said.

“We welcome the government of Mexico’s statement that they will seek cooperation with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to address immigration issues in the region, including the influx of people arriving in Mexico,” Secretary of State Mike Pomper said in a statement. “The United States stands ready to assist the Government of Mexico and UNHCR in this effort.”

If an individual manages to evade the new system and travels through Mexico to eventually cross the border into the U.S., Mexico will now allow those persons to be returned to Mexico, the official told Fox News. Currently, the U.S. has had to house those people until their cases could be adjudicated before being removed to their country of origin.

At the established shelters, U.N. officials will vet the refugees to decide which ones have legitimate claims for refugee status, the official told Fox News.

If a person or persons is determined to have a legitimate claim, they will undergo a U.N. process of being placed in a host country, which could ultimately be the U.S. or any other country that has an agreement with the UNHCR, the official said.

  1. So, Mexico and the UN will work with our best interests in mind. Build the wall, freeze immigration to anybody that requires government assistance. All government documents printed in English only. Immigrants have NO voting rights. That’s just a start.

  2. The treaty governing refugees states the seekers are to be detained and cared for in teh FIRST STABLE COUNTRY they arrive in while being vetted.
    That would be Mexico. Mexico failed to live up to it’s treaty obligations teh last time they pulled this shit.If teh UN actually does this, they hafta let them stay in Mexico.
    Thank God for President Trump.

  3. Mexico is clever by half. Call the feckless UN. If the caravan marches through the UN line, well, hey, it’s not Mexico’s fault, is it? Is Mexico that disorganized it needs outside assistance to secure its Southern border?
