US finds 同盟(する) in Mexico as 亡命 政策 示すs first year

TIJUANA, Mexico (AP) - The Perla family of El Salvador has slipped into a daily rhythm in Mexico while they wait for the U.S. to decide whether to 認める them 亡命.

A modest home has 取って代わるd the テント they lived in at a migrant 避難所. Their 7- and 5-year-old boys are in their second year of public school, and their third son is about to celebrate his second birthday in Tijuana.

They were の中で the first migrants sent 支援する to Mexico under a Trump 行政 政策 that 劇的な reshaped the scene at the U.S.-Mexico 国境 by returning migrants to Mexico to wait out their U.S. 亡命 過程. The practice 最初 的d Central Americans but has 拡大するd to other 国籍s, 除外するing Mexicans, who are 免除された. The 母国 安全 Department said Wednesday that it started making Brazilians wait in Mexico.

Today, a year after the 政策 began, many other migrants have given up and gone 支援する to the home countries they fled. Others, like the Perlas, became 堅固に守るd in Mexican life. The system known as the Migrant 保護 議定書s helped change Washington's 関係 with Mexico and made the neighbor a 重要な 同盟(する) in 大統領 Donald Trump's 成果/努力s to turn away a 殺到する of 亡命 探検者s.

The Perlas are faring better than most of the 概略で 60,000 亡命-探検者s, many of whom live in 恐れる of 存在 robbed, 強襲,強姦d, 強姦d or killed. Human 権利s First, a group 批判的な of the 政策, has 文書d 816 public 報告(する)/憶測s of violent 罪,犯罪s against those who were returned to Mexico. Late last year, the 団体/死体 of a Salvadoran father of two was 設立する dismembered in Tijuana. A Salvadoran woman was kidnapped into 売春 in Ciudad Juarez.

早い 拡大 of the 政策 was 重要な to a June 協定 between the U.S. and Mexico that led Trump to 一時停止する his 脅し of 関税 増加するs. The 共和国の/共和党の 大統領,/社長 said at the time that Mexico was doing more than 民主党員s to 演説(する)/住所 違法な 移民/移住.

American 公式の/役人s 賞賛するd 大統領 Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's 政府 last week after 安全 軍隊s repelled a caravan of Honduran migrants on Mexico's southern bor der with Guatemala.

"Mexico continues to be a true partner in 演説(する)/住所ing this 地域の 危機," 示す Morgan, 事実上の/代理 commissioner of U.S. Customs and 国境 保護, said on Twitter.

U.S. 国境 当局 say the 政策 has 与える/捧げるd to a sharp 減少(する) in 違法な crossings, though 合法的な challenges could 修正する or even 封鎖する it. 移民/移住 裁判官s hear 事例/患者s in San Diego and El Paso, Texas, while other 亡命-探検者s 報告(する)/憶測 to テント 法廷,裁判所s in the Texas cities of Laredo and Brownsville, where they are connected to 裁判官s by ビデオ.

This month, 裁判官s in El Paso began 審理,公聴会 事例/患者s of people who were returned to Mexico through Nogales, Arizona, the last major 回廊(地帯) for 違法な crossings where the 政策 hadn't been 可決する・採択するd. This has 軍隊d migrants to 横断する dangerous sections of Mexico and travel hundreds of miles to make 法廷,裁判所 外見s.

Richard Boren, a teacher, …を伴ってd two Guatemalan women and their four children, ages 4 to 16, across an international 橋(渡しをする) to their El Paso 審理,公聴会. The Guatemalans traveled 13 hours by bus from the Arizona 国境.

"I was really worried about them," said Boren, 62, who met them after they were returned to Mexico through Arizona and reconnected with them for their first 審理,公聴会.

Of nearly 30,000 事例/患者s decided through December, only 187, or より小数の than 1%, of 亡命-探検者s sent 支援する to Mexico won their 事例/患者s, によれば Syracuse University's Transactional 記録,記録的な/記録するs 接近 Clearinghouse. 欠如(する) of 合法的な 代表 helps explain why. より小数の than 5% have lawyers.

Juan Carlos Perla, 37, said all five 合法的な-services 機関s that U.S. 当局 say 供給する 解放する/自由な 代表 in San Diego 拒絶する/低下するd to 代表する him. Many 弁護士/代理人/検事s 辞退する to 代表する (弁護士の)依頼人s in Mexico.

The Perlas abandoned their small パン屋 in El Salvador's 資本/首都 for Mexico in December 2018, arriving during a small window when the Mexican 政府 問題/発行するd one-year 人道的な ビザs with 許可 to work. The family told U.S. 移民/移住 autho rities that they could not 支払う/賃金 ゆすり,強要 料金s to ギャング(団)s in San Salvador.

"We were told that if we did not 支払う/賃金 the last two months, the next time they would come to our house not to (警官の)巡回区域,受持ち区域 us but to kill us," Ruth Aracely Monroy, 26, Perla's partner and mother to their children, told U.S. 公式の/役人s, によれば a transcript. "We left to save our lives."

After bouncing around migrant 避難所s in Tijuana, they 設立する a 賃貸しの house for the 同等(の) of $65 a month an hour's 運動 from downtown, where factories on the city's east 味方する give way to 酪農場 farms and hillsides dotted with olive trees. The older boys walk one 封鎖する to school in a 密集して packed 近隣 of 固める/コンクリート-封鎖する homes with 衛星 dishes on the roofs.

Perla is 感謝する to be in Mexico, but grinding 恐れる about the 未来 has taken its (死傷者)数 on his health. "I am the 運動ing 軍隊 that keeps them from having to を煩う hunger," he says.

Monroy's sister, brother-in-法律 and their children fled El Salvador and became neighbors in June. Their first 法廷,裁判所 date was in December in San Diego.

Perla earned enough at a factory that makes 支持を得ようと努めるd pallets to 支払う/賃金 月毎の rent with barely a week's work, but he lost his 職業 when his work 許す 満了する/死ぬd. While he waits on a 再開, he 捨てるs by as a street vendor.

The family appears to 直面する long 半端物s of winning 亡命, 特に without a lawyer. The 認める 率 for Salvadoran 亡命-探検者s is 18%, and 事例/患者s 伴う/関わるing ギャング(団) 暴力/激しさ can be の中で the most difficult.

The family 計画(する)s to take its chances and if they lose, try to return to Tijuana to live. Their sixth, and かもしれない final, 審理,公聴会 in San Diego is scheduled for March 26.

"Mexico has been very 肉親,親類d," Perla said.
