I came across this breathtakingly arrogant quote while trying to figure out why Mexico is not bringing its considerable resources to bear to stop this illegal caravan:
In his campaign, Mexican President-elect Andrés Manuel López Obrador defended the human rights of migrants, and his incoming undersecretary for immigration, Alejandro Encinas, has already declared that Mexico is “not going to chase migrants. We are not going to criminalize them. We have to stop looking at immigration as an issue of public security or national security, or the national security of the United States.”
Mexico can do little to stop the migrant caravan, no matter what Trump claims
“National security” — and sovereign borders — must be defined differently down there. Trump has his work cut out for him to resolve this mess.
