Mexico Reportedly Arrests Hundreds of Central Americans Forming a New Migrant Caravan. Will This Last?

Reportedly, in light of the fiascos of 2018, Mexico is droppin' the hammer on migrant caravans.

On Monday night, authorities arrested nearly 400 illegal immigrants near the country's border with Guatemala.

Trump has, of course, long been demanding Mexico take a stand against illegal immigration.

After threatening to close the border with Mexico to trade several weeks ago, Trump claimed his counterpart, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, was promising to take the U.S.'s concerns seriously.

Mexico claims its reasons for the cracking down have a lot to withMexico.

More from TDW:. Mexico also says their crackdowns aren't targeted at immigrants, per se, but at a criminal element that seems to be using the caravans as cover for human trafficking operations.

What do you think of Mexico's efforts? Are they likely to continue? Will they have any notable effect on the U.S? They could - data released in March revealed that the majority of illegals coming into America since October were natives of Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador.
