Villahermosa (Mexico), Mar 23 (EFE), (CAMERA: Manuel Lopez) .- Migrants seeking to reach the United States are crossing the southern border of Mexico from new little-used points such as the Grijalva River, on the border of the state of Tabasco with Guatemala, the head of the National Institute of Migration (INM), Francisco Garduño, said on Tuesday.
Matamoros, Nov 9 (EFE).- Migrants who for more than a year have been living in a camp set up in the city of Matamoros along the Mexican side of the Rio Bravo - known in the US as the Rio Grande - are celebrating the victory of Democrat Joe Biden in the Nov. 3 US presidential election and are now hoping for the overturning of the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) and the ability to enter the US legally.The news of President Donald Trump's defeat in the election spread quickly through the improvised camp via word of mouth and WhatsApp groups, and expectations are high that the US stance on migration will change markedly after Biden takes office on Jan. 20, 2021.
