The United States of America intends to accept up to 30,000 migrants per month from Cuba, Nicaragua, Haiti and Venezuela, as part of a program that also provides for the deportation of people from the same countries detained at the US-Mexico border, Americans and Mexicans officials have indicated, quoted by Reuters and Agerpres.
This expanded humanitarian program is based on the policy launched last October that allowed thousands of Venezuelans to enter the US by air if they apply in advance from abroad and can prove they have a „sponsor” in the United States , the officials mentioned.
The new policies in this sense could be presented as early as Thursday, two American officials said. President Joe Biden, who will deliver a speech on border security on Thursday, said at the White House on Wednesday that he plans to visit the border with Mexico next week to „see what’s going on,” but the details of that visit are still unclear.
Biden did not specify whether the visit would include the border city of El Paso in Texas, where a state of emergency was declared in December due to the flow of migrants. However, the website Axios later reported that the head of state will visit this city.
