The moment the expresident said the strategy would be "hugs, not bullets", everything became even worse, it was basically "let them do as they please", there were even videos of narcos walking by and making fun of the militia in their faces.
Thar strategy is still in place so... In different circumstances, it could have worked, with the current administration (which is completely under the narcos control) it's pointless and will only lead to the harassment of the migrants.
I'd imagine mexico needs an El Salvador type approach. Not a Duterte type approach ..
And a prison for these people on Clarion.
It would have to be backed with better quality of life for the citizens... So it's never gonna happen
