Cuba is one of the countries contributing irregular migrants to the current wave that travels through many Central American countries with the aim of reaching Mexico, and once within its borders enters its ultimate destination, the United States.
So far this year, 581 illegal Cuban immigrants have been deported by Mexican authorities in accordance with current bilateral agreements on migration.
According to the Washington bureau of Latin America (WOLA), the number of Cubans on the US-Mexico border increased from 862 in August to 7,893 in December at the end of 2021.

But, according to analysts, the recent increase is due to the economic crisis affecting Cuba, the combination of epidemics, the tightening of US sanctions and the failure of national economic policy.
Especially during the reigns of the right-wing Vicente Fox (2000-2006), Cuba and Mexico maintained 117 years of uninterrupted diplomatic relations.
The return of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) to the presidency at the hands of Enrique Pena Nieto improved relations, and they received a new impetus when AMLO became president.
