The American president signed an executive order today that will go into effect June 5 and will take effect when the southern border is “congested.”
U.S. officials note, however, that the border with Mexico for undocumented migrants could be reopened if the average number of refugees passing through it becomes “low enough for the U.S. system to safely and effectively manage border operations.” Peak values for closing the border must exceed 2,500 people per week, and values must stay below 1,500 people per week to open the border.
U.S. officials clarified that the restrictions will not affect people crossing the border through the Customs and Border Protection One app, unaccompanied children, victims of human trafficking, those in need of emergency medical care, and permanent residents.
The U.S. media also reported that the U.S. will begin to expedite the deportation of illegal migrants who pose a threat to national security and society.
It is noted that the country has begun to quickly consider asylum cases for the accelerated removal of those who do not have legal grounds for stay.
Recall, one of the key requirements of the Republican Party is the construction of a wall on the southern border to close migration from Mexico. Earlier, its adoption was made a condition for providing aid to Ukraine.
