Human Events: Migrant crossings through Panama’s Darien Gap drop 99% after Trump takes office: report
The number of migrants crossing the Darien Gap has decreased by nearly 99% in February 2025 compared to the same month last year, with only 408 migrants making the journey. This marks the lowest number since 2020, largely influenced by changes in immigration policies.
The decline is attributed to the dismantling of routes used by Chinese migrants and the impact of President Trump's return to office and strict immigration measures, leading to a trend of reverse migration as individuals leave Costa Rica for Panama.
