The United States currently has a safe third country agreement with Canada, and Trump is being urged by GOP leaders to establish one with Mexico too. If he does this, America will not have to accept asylum applications from aliens coming here from Mexico.Mexico already is encouraging the migrants in the caravan to apply for asylum in Mexico instead of in the United States. It has offered them temporary identification papers and jobs if they register for asylum in Mexico.If Trump establishes third country agreements with a substantial number of countries, it could greatly reduce the number of asylum applications the United States has to consider.
I thought if a migrant refused a first off of asylum (Mexico) then the second country (USA) does not have to offer it.
