“The Mexican government said Monday that it is drafting a resolution for the United Nations Human Rights Council criticizing U.S. plans to build hundreds of miles of fencing on its southern border.

Mexican Ambassador Luis Alfonso de Alba, who is president of the 47-member council, said the resolution will denounce the fence for violating human rights and driving undocumented migrants to cross the border in more remote and dangerous areas.”
