More than 2,000 migrants remain stranded in southeast Mexico 2 minutes read Tapachula, Mexico, Jul 15 (EFE).- More than 2,000 migrants, many of them Haitians, remain stranded in the southeastern Mexican border city of Tapachula, where Mexican refugee agency Comar kicked off a strategy this week aimed at providing more expedited assistance. Comar’s delegate in Chiapas, Alma Cruz, said the new mechanism for attending to migrants was launched with the goal of preventing the accumulation of large crowds and the risk of a coronavirus super-spreader event. The goal is to speed up foreigners’ asylum claim processes, which now begin virtually, and reduce the burden on local residents.
