Central American migrants are being expelled by the U.S. and flown deep into Mexico for deportation to their homelands. The unusual bilateral effort is being criticized by U.N. agencies worried that people who deserve asylum might be among the deportees.

Details of the highly unusual bilateral effort also began trickling out, with a Guatemalan official saying that Mexico is busing Guatemalans, Hondurans and Salvadorans to remote border crossings with Guatemala after they arrive on U.S. government flights. Mexican immigration agency buses are unloading migrants from those flights at international crossings in El Carmen and El Ceibo. The latter is a particularly remote outpost where there is a small shelter, but little else.

Matthew Reynolds, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees representative to the United States and Caribbean, said returning asylum-seekers to their countries without proper screening for the dangers they are fleeing would violate international law. The refugee agency was one of five U.N. agencies, including UNICEF, its human rights office, women’s agency and the International Organization for Migration, that expressed concern for the U.S. government’s continued use of the public health justification for not allowing the normal asylum process.

Daniel Berlin, deputy director of the nongovernmental organization Asylum Access, said that his organization is the largest legal services provider for asylum-seekers in Mexico, yet they have not been given any access to the people being flown into southern Mexico, despite having an office in Villahermosa where U.S. flights have landed this week.

For years, the U.S. government has intermittently flown deported Mexican migrants back home to make it more difficult to try to cross the border again, but this appears to be the first time it has flown Central Americans to Mexico instead of their home countries.

All these people whining about coming legally probably don't realize their ancestorsmost likely didn't come legally but that's ok because they're from Europe and came through Ellis Island even though it's been documented Ellis literally just allowed everyone (stowaways too) in.

Then let the UN take care of them.

No Central American illegal immigrants deserve the international asylum seekers designation, as they have not been subjected to racial, ethnic, religious or political discrimination in their origin countries. They are economic migrants seeking better income in the USA.

I believe we should help and I believe USA should help USA first. People are dying of this COVID and other countries don't care. We have no idea who has what. We don't know age, criminal background, medical backgound, over staying Visa time. Now two people have died of a fungus.

Excellent!

I read the story. It lacks dates and appears to be disinformation.

Deport each and every criminal illegal alien without exception. Their very presence in our country is an affront to the idea of rule of law. And their reasons, or motives, for entering the country is irrelevant; let them address those questions themselves in their own countries.

They might not be among them too

Soooo... They don't take a boat from Mexico to Florida. That's what magas were telling me

They must be really angry with drumpfus about that.

Legalize all drugs already

Maybe the UN as a country can take those we are returning? Oh, the UN does not have a country. Maybe the UN has an army to stop the US.? The UN has no army...okay then maybe the UN does not have any stake in what the US does to maintain it's sovereignty.

how about all the migrants go shack up over there in geneva and we'll tell you how many to keeo

THEY COME HERE FOR THE FREE SHT FROM OUR GOVERNMENT THEY COME HERE BECAUSE THE DNC AND IMMIGRATION GROUPS RECRUITED THEM THEY COME HERE TO TURN AZ AND TEXAS 'BLUE' BIGGEST (MOST OBVIOUS) SCAM EVER TO CHANGE THE DEMOGRAPHICS VIA COMMITTING FELONIES

There must be one, at least one - who would disagree with that?

People who deserve asylum are definitely among the deportees, you see, we're having a wee bit of a racist born again christian anti vax anti mask pro gun white separatist problem in the united states at the moment, joe's trying to hold it together at the moment

a burden of millions extremely destitute people with thousands arriving daily all simultaneously demanding an immediate increase to their standard of living it's impossible

Can we get a list of those countries? We can then give the illegal migrants a choice go back to their country or go to one of those.

Send them all back!

nice

Look I get wanting to come to America. There is a process. Use it
