During the week of January 20 to 26, 2025, four thousand 094 people deported from the United States arrived in Mexico on four flights, according to the Mexican government.

The majority of those deported to Mexico are nationals. This flow is part of the repatriation relationship between both countries, present since past administrations and in effect under the presidency of Claudia Sheinbaum.

The president emphasized that, although no significant increase in recent deportations has been observed, the weekly figure remains within historical records.

Therefore, deportations to Mexico next week are expected to maintain a similar pace.

Mexico has implemented specific measures to receive and support deportees through the “Mexico te abraza” program.

The program operates on the northern border and at key airports, such as the Felipe Ángeles International Airport (AIFA) to offer comprehensive services to nationals. The main actions include:

  • Care Centers on the northern border, some in operation and others to be completed.
  • Services at the AIFA with labor support and social reintegration, previously coordinated by Foreign Minister Alicia Bárcena.

Additionally, President Claudia Sheinbaum pointed out that both the Foreign Ministry and the National Migration Institute (INM) have a scheme to guarantee the protection of the human rights of repatriated Mexicans. In case of violations, different mechanisms have been established, such as:

  • Filing complaints with CBP (U.S. Customs and Border Protection).
  • Channeling cases to human rights organizations in the United States.
  • Filing legal claims in U.S. courts in the face of serious violations.
