The Biden administration is expected to announce a virtual platform that will serve as a one-stop shop for migrants to find information about legal pathways they might be eligible for either in the US, Mexico or Canada and the opening of a new resource center in southern Mexico, the senior administration official said.

The US, Mexico, and Canada will all commit to making it possible for migrants to access our legal pathways through one platform, the senior administration official told CNN.

The virtual portal is in part a recognition of the challenges migrants face in trying to identify legal pathways to come to the US and then navigating the often difficult and arduous process to do so. Instead, people often look to smugglers, who disseminate misinformation on US policies, to journey north a hurdle for the Biden administration as it tries to discourage migrants from taking that route.

A bit weird, what would the portal cover?

President Joe Biden on Thursday announced he is expanding a program to accept up to 30,000 migrants per month from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela along with a plan to expel as many migrants from those countries who circumvent US laws as his administration confronts a surge of migrants at the southern border.

In a speech from the White House, Biden also unveiled plans to visit the US southern border on Sunday, stopping in El Paso, Texas, to meet local officials and address border security issues. It will be his first stop at the border as president.

The informal agreement struck on Wednesday still needs to be translated into EU law and it was not immediately clear when the suspension would come into force. Borrell said it would become more difficult and take longer for Russians to get a visa from an EU member state, and the number of new travel documents would be reduced substantially .

The European Commission has been tasked with coming up with guidance about the stock of 12m existing visas for Russians. The Czech foreign minister, Jan Lipavsk , acknowledged there was no quick fix. There are various ways forward and we can t answer this straight away, he said, without going into details.
