The Ministry of Foreign Relations (SRE) called on the countrymen who live in the United States to avoid participating in events and events that put them at risk, given the possibility that during the celebrations for the national holidays they can be arrested by the agents of the Immigration and Customs Control Center (ICE).
At a press conference, it was reported that on January 20, when the administration of Donald Trump started, to September 9, 92 thousand 583 people from the United States have been repatriated, of which more than 78 thousand have received assistance, protection and guidance in the repatriation processes.
Chancellor Juan Ramón de la Fuente explained that before the national celebrations in the North Nation it is about strengthening the message that the nationals know their rights and exercise them.
Roberto Velasco, head of the Unit for North America, recommended: “They avoid participating in events that put them at risk. We call prudence, to protect themselves and carefully.”
Vanessa Calva, director of Consular Protection and Strategic Planning, said that these are preventive measures that “seek that a person does not have interaction with any authority and, in case there were and could be arrested, it is important to keep in mind not fleeing, not resist or confront the authority.”
Visit of the Canadian Prime Minister
De la Fuente approached the visit to Mexico on September 18 and 19, Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney. Ready to whether the two countries could raise a plan B for Trump’s attitude, he stressed that they will deepen mainly in the economic and commercial relationship.
He said the Premier will meet with the Mexican president on September 18 in Palacio Nacional, where he will be accompanied by officials of his government and entrepreneurs in Canada.
