The United Nations human rights office has voiced serious concerns about the execution of a Mexican national by United States authorities in defiance of an order from the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
Mexico's ability to protect migrants' rights is one of “contrasts,” according to an independent United Nations human rights expert, who said that although the country has made steps towards addressing migrants' needs, much remains to be done.
The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour will make a four-day official visit next week to Mexico to assess recent developments in the country and key challenges ahead in protecting human rights.
