However, other sources have estimated at more than 1,000 the number of immigrants from the island concentrated in Nuevo Laredo.<\/p>\n<p>To get there, the Cubans received a document known as official letter of exit that grants them a period of 20 days to cross and leave Mexican territory or initiate a process of legalization.<\/p>\n<p>The Migration Law authorizes the INM to regularize, in some cases, foreign citizens who are in Mexican soil and express their interest in temporarily or permanently residing there.<\/p>\n<p>The end of the \u201cwet foot\/dry foot\u201d policy by the Obama administration left in a legal limbo hundreds of Cubans who were in Mexico and other countries in the region with the idea of entering the United States.<\/p>\n<p>According to Rivas, the Cubans stranded in Nuevo Laredo could request political asylum as an alternative to resolve their situation. The director of the Tamaulipeco Institute for Migrants, Jos\u00e9 Mart\u00edn Carmona, at the time offered aid to the Cubans in case they decided to travel to other states waiting for their legalization.<\/p>\n<p>The INM note insists on the Mexican authorities\u2019 commitment to provide \u201crespectful, dignified and humane treatment\u201d to the immigrants, but does not offer a definitive solution: the condition of stay for humanitarian reasons is a temporary permit. To aspire to permanent residence it is necessary to later apply for a change of migratory status, as long as the established requisites are met.<\/p>\n<p>Some Cuban immigrants have publicly shown concern for their future stay in Mexico. According to <em>El Nuevo Herald<\/em>, some 300 demonstrated this weekend in Nuevo Laredo to ask President Donald Trump that he allow them to enter the United States.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style='display:none' class=\"jeg_preview_slider gallery_1\" data-selector='gallery_1'>\n                        <div class=\"jeg_preview_holder\">\n                            <div class=\"jeg_preview_media\">\n                        <div class=\"jeg_preview_media_holder\">\n                            <h3>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n                            <div class=\"fullscreen-switch\">\n                                <i class=\"fa\"><\/i>\n                            <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"jeg_preview_media_content\">\n                                <div class=\"jeg_preview_media_content_holder_padding\">\n                                    <div class=\"jeg_preview_media_content_holder\"><\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                <div class=\"jeg_preview_media_content_navigation\">\n                                    <div class=\"prev\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"fa\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"next\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i class=\"fa\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                <div class='preview-slider-overlay'>\n                                    <div class='preloader_type preloader_dot'>\n                                        <div class=\"module-preloader jeg_preloader dot\">\n                                            <span><\/span><span><\/span><span><\/span>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                        <div class=\"module-preloader jeg_preloader circle\">\n                                            <div class=\"jnews_preloader_circle_outer\">\n                                                <div class=\"jnews_preloader_circle_inner\"><\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                        <div class=\"module-preloader jeg_preloader square\">\n                                            <div class=\"jeg_square\">\n                                                <div class=\"jeg_square_inner\"><\/div>\n                                            <\/div>\n                                        <\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"jeg_preview_control\">\n                                <div class=\"left_control\">\n                                    <div class=\"counter\"><span class=\"current\">1<\/span> of  4<\/div>\n                                    <div class=\"subtitle\"><\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                                <div class=\"zoom\">\n                                    <span class=\"reduce\">-<\/span>\n                                    <span class=\"increase\">+<\/span>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n\n                    <div class=\"jeg_preview_bottom_slider\">\n                        <a data-id=\"0\" data-title=\"A beggar spends the hours on the border sentry line.
