Arrests of migrants on the border between the USA and Mexico near Record deep in February

Washington -the number of migrants who illegally crossed the border between the USA and Mexico in February is up to date or near a monthly record low, a spokesman for the US Ministry of Homeland Protection and two other sources towards Reuters.

The US border Patrol is up to date in February in February that around 8,500 migrants have arrested at the border, said DHS spokesman Tricia McLaughlin. Two other sources stated that the total monthly total would be or near a record low.

President Donald Trump, a Republican, took a number of measures to prevent illegal immigration after returning to the White House on January 20.

Trump's movements included the implementation of a comprehensive ban on asylum on the border and the rising military troops to support border security.

The American Civil Liberties Union sued the Trump government at the beginning of this month because of the ban and argued that it had violated the US asylum law and international contracts.

The Trump administration also met new agreements with Mexico and Central American countries to accept US deportees from other nations, and sent some migrants to a camp in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

The monthly enforcement statistics of the US border Patrol are attributed to 2000. The lowest monthly total monthly, which currently corresponds in April 2017 when the agency arrested 11.127 at the beginning of the first term of office.

While the number of border arrears at the beginning of the 2017-2021 presidency in a similar way -which some referred to as “Trump effect” -they recovered in a few months and years.

The forecast in February would be a steep decline in the 141,000 migrant arrests in February 2024 and after 29,000 in January, according to the US government.
