Affairs, it is reported that:

expected, the Caravan known as "Viacrucis del Migrante" began its
dispersion at the decision of its members.
2.
Authorities of the government of Mexico, within the framework of the law and
with full respect for human rights, accompanied their participants at all times
during their tour of national territory.
3. The
desire not to continue with this mobilization was strictly due to the decision
of the people who were part of it and not to external or internal pressure.
4.
Regarding the foreigners that made up the migrant caravan, the Mexican
government has focused its efforts on reporting on the regularization processes
and options provided for in the Migration Law; Likewise, the migratory
administrative procedures have been initiated to those who manifested this
interest (465 people requested exit trades, of which 230 have been
delivered). In addition, 168 of them are in the assumptions of law to
receive this same notification for regularization purposes, which will be
granted in the next few hours.
5. In
this regard, the Mexican government reiterates that its migration policy is
exercised in a sovereign manner and in accordance with the law. This seeks
to ensure that migration occurs legally, safely, orderly and with full respect
for the rights of people.

out since 2010 and is mainly integrated by migrants from the Northern Triangle
of Central America (Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador).
