The talks, scheduled for Sunday in Mexico City, will come a day before the end of a 45-day period in which the Mexican government committed to significantly lowering the number of people trying to cross the U.S. border illegally.On Monday, the Trump administration unveiled a new rule to bar migrants from applying for asylum at the U.S. southern border, requiring them to first pursue safe haven in a third country through which they had traveled.
However, Ebrard said the move would not affect the 45-day agreement between the two countries. He also denied that it would turn Mexico into a de-facto “safe third country,” under which Mexico would accept that asylum seekers passing through its territory should seek refuge there, not the United States.
