Todd Bensman, senior national security fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies, said there is no evidence that the “superhighway” immigration route via the Darien Gap has been closed despite an agreement between the U.S. and new Panamanian President Jose Raul Mulino.
The Darien Gap between Colombia and Panama, which is the only land path connecting Central America and South America, is used by illegal immigrants from South America and other parts of the world as a passageway to get to North America.
