Mexico: We don't 'make immigration decisions for US'

Trump blames Democrats for DACA ending 02:54 

(CNN)Mexico has firmly rejected US President Donald Trump's accusations of lax efforts to stop illegal migration over the Mexican-US border, saying in a statement Monday that it does not promote such activity under any circumstances.


Mexico's foreign ministry issued the statement after Trump spent Sunday and Monday tweeting against Mexico's efforts, referencing an immigrant caravan heading towards the United States.


A 1,100-strong migrant caravan assembled by the group Pueblo Sin Fronteras (People without Borders), is currently moving north through Mexico. Organizers say the primary goal of the caravan's participants is to "flee Central America" and seek asylum either within Mexico or the United States. 


In its statement, the Mexican Foreign Ministry said the caravan is mainly made up of people from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador and that around 400 caravan participants who did not enter the country of Mexico lawfully had been repatriated to their countries of origin "with the strict legal framework." 


"Under no circumstance does the government of Mexico promote illegal migration," it said.




The ministry said the circumstances of the caravan differed from those of previous years in that "the Mexican immigration authorities have proceeded to offer refuge in some cases, as well as other necessary protective measures." 


Mexico "does not make immigration decisions for the United States or any other nation," the statement said, adding that the respective authorities "will decide whether to authorize or not the entry of those who are part of the caravan."

On the auspices of female migration from Mexico to the United States (MAGAZINE)

In this paper we examine the circumstances and determinants of female migration between Mexico and the United States. Using data from the Mexican Migration Project, we considered the relative timing of males’ and females’ moves northward. We then estimated logit and probit models to study the determinants of male and female out-migration; among women we also estimated a multinomial logit model to uncover differences in the process of migration for work versus not for work. We found that women almost always followed other family members, either the husband or a parent; only a tiny minority initiated migration independently. Although males also are quite likely to be introduced to migration by a parent, nearly half of all male migrants left for the United States before or without a wife or a parent. Estimates of the determinants of migration suggested that males move for employment, whereas wives generally are motivated by family reasons. Daughters, however, display a greater propensit...
