Central American migrants and locals arrive in Ciudad Hidalgo in Chiapas State, Mexico, after illegally crossing the Suchiate river from Tecun Uman in Guatemala in a makeshift raft, on June 10, 2019. In the framework of Mexico's deal to curb migration in order to avert US President Donald Trump's threat of tariffs, Mexico's Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard said Mexico will discuss a "safe third country" agreement with the US -- in which migrants entering Mexican territory must apply for asylum there rather than in the US -- if the flow of undocumented immigrants continues.
