Thousands of migrants from different countries have been traveling across Mexico in buses, overcrowded trailers and atop freight trains in an attempt to reach the US-Mexican border.

Since 2014, over 8,200 migrants have either lost their lives or gone missing in the Americas, with the majority of these incidents occurring as they attempted to reach the US via Mexico, as reported by the International Organization for Migration.

During talks held in Mexico City on Thursday, high-ranking officials from the US and Mexico vowed to intensify their initiatives in addressing irregular migration. Their strategies include enhancing border security, bolstering legal pathways, and tackling the underlying causes of migration.

Following the discussions, US Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas emphasized that both nations were dedicated to broadening "safe, orderly, and lawful pathways for migrants," but stressed that there would be "strict consequences" for those who enter the US illegally.
