A report this week from Mexico’s National Institute of Migration (INM) found that between Nov. 23, 2022 and May 6, the agency’s office in the southern state of Chiapas, where Tapachula is located, gave out visas and permits to 81,245 migrants from 103 nations across the globe.
The vast majority of the migrants came to Mexico from countries in South America — Venezuela, where many migrants fled the poverty that goes hand-in-hand with socialist rule, topped the list with a staggering 23,329 nationals.
Ecuador and Haiti followed with 14,238 and 12,986 migrants, respectively.
But on the list of countries were 4 Swiss nationals, 39 from Kyrgyzstan, 345 people from Afghanistan, and 738 from China.
