it will start sending some asylum seekers who enter the country illegally back to mexico mexico has agreed to accept the markets for humanitarian reasons but it says it still has the right to admit will reject the entry of not mexicans into its territory we've got she had her times in washington d.c. looking at this one can you explain a little more detail of what is actually main street up. well we know over the trumpet ministration has been trying to negotiate something like this with the mexican government for some time and had negotiations with the former government of enrique opinion yet it was having to go with the incoming government of the government of unders manuel lopez obrador in fact at the end of last month there were reports that a deal had been reached and the lopez obrador transition team at the time had to walk that back because there was such an outcry will have to see whether they'll be a similar outcry now but from what we understand that legal illegal migrants on the some on the on the border on the southern border without papers will now be made to
1:05 am
wait while their. claims of being adjudicated in mexico are legal when i say legal i mean those who have under international and national law the right to claim asylum in in the u.s. even though they don't have papers and those who are not claiming asylum they're all just going to be sent back they will wait in mexico they will be given a humanitarian these are what is what they're calling it they will be given work permits mexican authorities are now suggesting well this is just formalizing what's already happening about loads of jobs to be had in mexico but there are so many questions we have about this firstly where will they all stay are the results is to deal with all of these over all of these migrants in addition to how is this going to be rolled out might compare the secretary of state just released a statement saying this will be immediately implemented but what does it actually mean is being implemented now is being rolled out in phases in different locations at different times as a permanent or temporary i'm saying that the mexican government is addressing this is more of a temporary measure than
1:06 am
a permanent measure. it it's interesting that we're talking a lot about trans border wall but this actually is pretty huge actually pretty been a breathtaking moment in the nature of migration now between the south and the north here and a major victory for the trump administration as it cracks down on immigration because was it not the case previously she had this is a bit of housekeeping i guess that if you cross that border if you go over to the u.s. side then you had the right to seek asylum and then this would clearly change all of that. well if he doesn't i think this is the legal loophole that the administration is going for there is a provision in federal or apparently that if someone enters the u.s. from contiguous territory then the u.s. is allowed to make them wait in that territories mexico or canada so that's i think what they're using here but we'll have to see what the link what legal challenges are now made and we can bet that there will be legal challenges the first obvious question is well what if you're seeking asylum from danger in mexico and we're
1:07 am
beginning to see reports because this was the spelled out in the initial documents that actually those who have a claim saying they fear fear of violence or some sort of danger in mexico will be allowed to stay but then that leads to the question yeah but is it safe to even have central american migrants who will be staying in mexico to stay in these border states which are run by often by drug cartels and you know just this week we had two teenagers killed in tijuana on your own teenagers killed in tijuana so that might be one legal avenue now. but i think the loophole they're using is if it's a contiguous territory the u.s. is actually out on the federal or at least to make people wait on the other side of the other side of the border ok thank you for that she had in washington there are of course still thousands of central american asylum seekers trying to get to the u.s. their hopes being dashed not just by what we've heard about but many of them have been turned away at the border saying they have not been given the legal protections that they are entitled so. has more from the goddess on the mexican
