caribbean have agreed on several measures to prevent uncontrolled migration to the u. s. u s. president joe biden has just announced the measures at the end of the summit of the americas taking place in alec 20 countries has signed up to the declaration believe just from the countries that account for the largest fil migrants to the vast, that's cuba, venezuela and nicaragua, were not invited and mexico boycotted the summit in protest. there are security is leg and ways that i don't think most people in my country fully understand and maybe not in your country as well. are common humanity demands that we care for our neighbors by working together. and we know that safe, orderly, legal migration is good for all our economies. but we need to hold the dangers on a lot of ways. people are mar, grady, the dangerous way. a lawful migration is not acceptable, while reynold says that the summit ne joins is now. hi there, rob,
1:03 am
how much do we know about the details of these agreements? well, we have some details. i and there are some specifics in this los angeles declaration . you know, julie, millions of people are on the move all over this hemisphere and the problems that cause them to leave their homelands are very deep seated. so it's unlikely that this declaration is going to resolve the problem. but present biden, as you heard there ah, was emphasizing the common purpose of these 20 countries that have signed on and stepped up. and among those countries i want to point out is mexico. because even though mexico's president decided to skip the summit of the americas, his foreign minister was here, they did sign on and they have made some commitments. so that is a key country in the whole migration puzzle. so what does it do? it one is essentially a matter of burden sharing. a number of central and south american countries have
1:04 am

1:05 am
. and with the regular a regulating the way that people are processed, the u. s. said it would begin processing. people who do have the right to stay in the united states more efficiently, more streamlined, more humane manner. also present bite and said that if you are praying on innocent migrants, if you are a human trafficker, we're coming after you, we're going to get you. and the u. s. is going to lead a multi lateral sort of legal enforcement strike team against the human smugglers. so all in all, it is not something that is going to satisfy everyone. as i mentioned, there are very, very deep reasons why people are leaving their homes. it has to do with ecological devastation. it has to do with crime and gangs poverty. of course,

poor government and repression in many cases. and these are not going to go away because some people signed a document. nevertheless, given that the summit here has been marked by so much acrimony by boycotts by some states. as you mentioned, it's probably a better deal than many people thought they'd ever get brand. also joining us with those details promote a role. thank you. all the massive migrant caravan that set off from so the mexican monday to coincide with a start of the summit. it's not largely broken up about 4000 mainly venezuelan people set off on soup with the aim of reaching the us border. but as manuel report reports from the state, many of them are now making their own way. the most cries of desperation from migrants in week slum mexico there calling on authorities to grant them humanitarian transit visas. after waiting for days,
