U.S. and Mexican officials have agreed on a plan to handle the approaching migrant caravan making their way up from Central America, a senior administration official told Fox News on Thursday.
over the course of several months, Mexico will request that the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) establish shelters along its southern border with Central America, the official said.
Mexican Ambassador to the U.S. Geronimo Gutierrez elaborated on the request, during an interview on Fox News’ “Special Report.”
“Just today, the Mexican government, and this is a very important step, requested the intervention of the U.N., the Office of the High Commissioner on Refugees, to help Mexico review any asylum claims from the members of the caravan,” Gutierrez said. “That will allow us to have a process by which in our border we will make sure that of serving human rights, respecting international law, if there are legitimate claims to refugee, those can be processed in a very clear way.”
If an individual manages to evade the new system and travels through Mexico to eventually cross the border into the U.S., Mexico will now allow those persons to be returned to Mexico, the official told Fox News. Currently, the U.S. has had to house those people until their cases could be adjudicated before being removed to their country of origin.
At the established shelters, U.N. officials will vet the refugees to decide which ones have legitimate claims for refugee status, the official told Fox News.
If a person or persons is determined to have a legitimate claim, they will undergo a U.N. process of being placed in a host country, which could ultimately be the U.S. or any other country that has an agreement with the UNHCR, the official said.

2ND large caravan from that area headed to the USA this year.
The other one arrived about six months ago. A few thousands here,
and a few thousand there and before long we’ll be swamped.
Don’t be idiotic, we don’t even execute mass murders. Your rhetoric does no good and makes FR look like a refugee for nutcases.
So watching on Fox right now, the invading army of cockroaches has broken through the mexican border.
Once again, mexico offered nothing but lip service in stopping these cockroaches.
Awww... Did I offend the sensibilities of a big government, open borders, RINO?
You poor thing. Let me clue you in:
WE’RE BEING INVADED!
And with this being an invasion, it should automatically become a military issue.
But you know what? In retrospect you’re right and I was wrong.
I should have included plenty of white phosphorus.
“A-10 A-10 flying high
drop that napalm from the sky.
See those kids over by the river
drop some napalm an’ watch them quiver.
‘Cause napalm sticks to babies!
Napalm sticks to kids!”
Your nonsense would not be acceptable to the vast majority of Americans, like it or not. Bluster or not.
Pointing out that fact seems to upset you for some reason and release sadistic tendencies. Maybe a minister could help you.
In reality our military’s efforts are compromised in war to the point that they are frustrated by the politicians fretting over collateral damage you should know this better than most. Yet, you think an unarmed crowd is going to be attacked?
I hope you're right but I'll hold my judgement. The fact that we're depending on Mexico and the UN to deal with these invaders gives me great pause and very little confidence.
FoxNews is now running a story titled, "Caravan migrants, defying Trump warnings, smash through border fence en route to Mexican territory."
These U.N. “officials” will probably grant asylum to every single one of them.

That’s what I think.
They should agree on calibers.
