Hondurans take part in a caravan of new immigrants headed to the United States, gathering in front of police blocking the road to Hondo, Guatemala, Jan. 17, 2021
Thousands of Honduran northern migrants have recently begun marching toward the United States and urging incoming Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden to keep his promised immigration policies, while an unnamed official of Biden’s regime transfer team appealed to the public yesterday (17), “This is not the time to migrate.”
According to Forsyth News, Biden pledged to change President Donald Trump‘s immigration and border policy during last year’s U.S. election to end the U.S. and Mexico’s Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP), under which immigrants waiting for U.S. hearings on their applications for political asylum Biden also promised that illegal immigrants in the U.S. would be detained in Mexico. Biden also promised that illegal immigrants in the U.S. would be granted permanent residency, and that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE) would suspend deportations of illegal immigrants.
A recent wave of immigrants from Honduras is gradually approaching the United States, and according to the Associated Press, these immigrants hope to be warmly received by the U.S. side when they arrive at the U.S. border, and hope that the Biden administration will then take action.
However, a member of the Biden transition team told NBC yesterday that the situation at the U.S. border will not change overnight and that he hopes the asylum-seekers understand that they will not immediately enter the U.S. in the first few weeks of the Biden regime and that this will expose their health and safety to risk.
