SAN DIEGO (Border Report) — Russian nationals have been getting most of the asylum interviews and access to the United States in the San Diego Sector using the CBP One app, according to Mexico’s National Institute of Migration.
Since the Department of Homeland Security announced that CBP One would be the primary method for asylum-seekers arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border to preschedule appointments for processing, INM says that more than 15,000 migrants in the Baja California area have registered and successfully received appointments.
Enrique Lucero, director of Tijuana’s Migrant Affairs Office, says 6,645 Russians have landed appointments followed by 2,700 Haitians, 1,864 Mexicans and 1,844 Venezuelans.
