Migrants Depart From Mexico Hoping To Reach US Before Trump Takes Office
SHARE

Hundreds of migrants have embarked on a grueling journey from Tapachula, Mexico, with the goal of reaching the US border before President-elect Donald Trump assumes office in January. The group, consisting of approximately 1,500 individuals, began their trek in the early hours of the morning, covering a distance of over 1,600 miles.

Yamel Enriquez, a Colombian migrant, expressed his determination to reach the US border before Trump’s inauguration. He emphasized the urgency of securing an asylum appointment before the new administration takes office. Similarly, Venezuelan migrant Zuleika Carreno joined the exodus with a singular focus on avoiding being stranded on the Mexican side of the border, fearing that her efforts would be in vain.

Trump’s election campaign was heavily centered on the issue of illegal immigration, with promises of implementing strict border security measures and mass deportations of undocumented migrants. His rhetoric has instilled fear among the migrant community, with concerns over the fate awaiting them once he assumes office. The President-elect has characterized the influx of migrants as an “invasion” and has raised alarming allegations of criminal activities by migrants.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum recently announced the government’s efforts to highlight the economic contributions of Mexican workers in the US. The ongoing influx of migrants from various troubled countries seeking a better life in America has led to the formation of group movements, commonly known as “caravans,” to pressure authorities for temporary visas. These collective journeys also serve as a safety measure against criminal threats along the way, although the groups often disperse as they progress.

As the migrants continue their arduous journey towards the US border, uncertainties loom over their fate in the face of impending policy changes under the new administration. The quest for a better life and the pursuit of opportunities drive these individuals to endure the hardships of the journey, hoping to find refuge and security in the land of opportunity.
