The White House announced support for an international multipurpose space in southern Mexico that will offer new refugee and labor options for migrants and its commitment to accepting refugee resettlement referrals from qualified Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans already in Mexico. The following statement is from from National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan. The United States encourages migrants to use these legal pathways instead of putting their lives in the hands of dangerous smugglers and traffickers. Pursuant to our laws, those seeking to enter the United States unlawfully will continue to face strong consequences, including removal, possible criminal prosecution, and a bar on reentry.
