Not a single caravan has reached north: Mexican President Sheinbaum pushes back on Trumps tariff threat
What happened
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum reported that no migrant caravan has reached the US border since January 2025. A group of around 600 migrants in the southern state of Chiapas dispersed after being informed that reaching the US would be difficult. Mexican authorities are discussing with around 300 Honduran migrants encouraging them to return home.
Why it matters
