::::My objection is that your version of the lead does not summarize what is said below in the article. The following is a distortion of what the article actually says (it is your personal opinion): "from abandonment of their family there to an attempt to benefit from entitlements or opportunities in a new country," though the real problem is what you omit. Furthermore you ignore the usual definition of immigration. There are some parts of the article that also ignore this definition, and the fact that Columbus discovered America, and that this led to its subsequent [[Thirteen colonies|colonization]] by people (foreigners) from Europe. This is about a poorly written lead, not politics.
