Overview
- Interior Secretary Rosa Icela Rodríguez told the U.S. ambassador that Mexico firmly objects to transfers of Mexican nationals through Guatemala, Honduras or Costa Rica before they are returned to Mexico.
- Mexico says an existing arrangement lets it receive returned people directly at national airports or across the northern border and asked the United States to follow that agreement.
- The Mexican government reported a 96 percent drop in irregular migration toward the United States and said migration agencies in both countries communicate daily to manage flows and protect migrants' rights.
- Rodríguez also presented results from a three-day outreach in five Michoacán municipalities where federal teams visited homes, helped re-enroll children in school and linked young people to safe study spaces and job options.
- The Mexican complaint is unresolved publicly and the U.S. response was not detailed in the coverage, which means operations and migrant reception practices could change depending on future bilateral talks.
