Fearing tariffs, Mexico scrambling to disperse migrant caravans ahead of Donald Trump’s inauguration
Facing threats of 25 percent tariffs on Mexican goods from the incoming Trump administration, Mexico has adopted its new, controversial "dispersion and exhaustion" strategy of deterring migrants from reaching the U.S. border. The strategy is giving Mexican officials the ability to scatter migrants far from traditional migration routes. This policy is being criticized as inhumane. Migrants report being misled by Mexican officials, who promise transit permits but leave them stranded far from migrant routes without access to transportation and other assistance. Critics argue that Mexico’s dispersal strategy undermines its claim of a humanitarian focus, as migrants face dangers like cartel violence and exploitation. The situation highlights the human cost of political and economic pressures on migration policies.
