A summit was held in Mexico with Latin American Leaders to discuss the issue of illegal migration to the United States. President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador emphasized the need to work together to address the humanitarian issue. In 2021, 1.7 million migrants arrived at the Mexican-U.S. border, causing concerns in both countries ahead of their upcoming presidential elections. The summit took place in Chiapas, a major entry point for migrants from South America, Central America, and the Caribbean. The United States has been deporting migrants mainly to Central and South America, while also offering protection to some Venezuelans. President Joe Biden will host a summit on November 3 to address economic growth and irregular migration in South America.
