☆ Center-Left Sociologist to Take Office as Guatemala’s New President

Bernardo Arévalo’s election victory has been upheld by Guatemala’s electoral court, and the U.S. government and Congress have backed the results. Photo: Johan Ordonez/Agence France-Presse/Getty ImagesBernardo Arévalo is set to take office Sunday as president of Guatemala with pledges to tackle the corruption and poverty that have fueled a wave of migration to the U.S., but an open confrontation with the country’s judiciary risks putting his plans in jeopardy. The 65-year-old center-left sociologist has been locked in a monthslong tussle for power with the country’s establishment since emerging as a surprise front-runner in last year’s election campaign. His win in August has been marked by allegations of fraud against him and his party leveled by Guatemalan Attorney General Consuelo Porras and several prosecutors.

Haitians were waiting to board a flight from Port-au-Prince to Nicaragua in late October as the Haitian government banned all charter flights to the Central American nation. Photo: Odelyn Joseph/Associated PressThe U.S. government said Tuesday it would impose visa restrictions on individuals running charter flights into Nicaragua, flooding the Central American country with tens of thousands of U.S.-bound migrants, mostly from Haiti, Cuba and Africa. The authoritarian government of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega , which has strained ties with the U.S., has in recent months allowed several little-known charter airlines and travel agencies to operate flights from Haiti, Cuba and other Caribbean airports to Nicaragua, according to Haitian and Nicaraguan civil aviation data.

☆ Migrants Wait Along Southern Border as New Rules Go Into Effect
  + stars: | 2023-05-13 | by ( Juan Montes | José De Córdoba | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
CIUDAD JUÁREZ, Mexico—New U.S. immigration rules are prompting thousands of migrants along the border to stay in Mexico and request asylum appointments, instead of entering illegally and risking deportation or criminal charges. The pandemic-era border measure known as Title 42, used to quickly expel asylum seekers, ended at midnight Thursday. After a massive surge of migrants crossed ahead of the deadline, many of those who didn’t make it across have decided to wait in Mexico—for now.

☆ The End of Title 42 Border Policy Puts Migrants in a Quandary

An additional 1,500 active-duty troops will temporarily support missions at the southern border, a Pentagon official said Tuesday. Photo: Jorge Duenes/ReutersNext week’s expiration of Title 42 border policy has altered the plans of many U.S.-bound migrants, with some now aiming to cross into the U.S. illegally ahead of the policy change and others planning to follow a new, slower process for seeking asylum. The Title 42 pandemic-era policy allows U.S. authorities to quickly expel migrants on public health grounds and is set to expire May 11. After that date, those who cross the border illegally will be held to a higher initial asylum standard—which most migrants are expected not to pass—and could be quickly deported from the U.S.

A judge in the northern border city of Ciudad Juárez, where the fire occurred, on Sunday ordered Francisco Garduño to stand trial on charges of negligence. He has headed Mexico’s immigration agency since mid-2019.

CIUDAD JUÁREZ, Mexico—Five months after leaving Venezuela, Orlando Maldonado was detained by Mexican immigration authorities near the Rio Grande, a few hundred feet from El Paso, Texas. Six hours later, he died in a fire inside a cell at a crowded detention center along with 38 other migrants, according to authorities and his relatives. The blaze started when a small group of migrants fearing that they would be deported set alight highly inflammable cell mats to protest being detained, Mexican authorities said. Private security guards and immigration officers abandoned the facility, leaving the migrants locked up as smoke filled the detention area, a surveillance video showed.
