The Mexican government has appointed a czar to oversee the mounting Central American immigration crisis that has taken over both Mexico and the United States, after feeling increased pressure from the U.S. to address the issue.
According to the New York Times, Mexico's Interior Minister Miguel Angel Osorio Chong appointed Humberto Mayans, a senator from his Institutional Revolutionary Party. Mayans will take the role of head of the agency, and will work independently from the Interior Ministry.
According to Osorio Chong, the new system would "guarantee the safety of migrants as well as their eventual repatriation."
