”I wouldn’t give him 10 cents” to Mexico for the migratory crisis, has released donald trumplittle friend of moderation when he addresses his favorite topic for the presidential elections: what he describes as “invasion” of migrants who “they are killing” To united states.
In February the Mexican government proposed a decalogue to address the immigration issue.
It includes the granting of US$20 billion annually to support the poor countries of Latin America and the Caribbean, where most of the migrants come from.
Trump, a probable Republican rival of Democratic President Joe Biden, a candidate for re-election in the November elections, considers it “a lack of respect” and he is not willing to tolerate it – he says – if he is elected at the polls.
“He said he wants $10 billion essentially just to talk, $10 billion to talk, that doesn’t make sense and that wouldn’t happen with me.“Trump declared to host Brian Kilmeade of the “Fox & Friends” channel.
“Disrespect”
Is “simply a lack of respect towards the president. They would never say that to me. They would never say, before speaking, I want US$10,000 million a year (…) they would never ask me for it“, he claimed. “I wouldn’t give you 10 cents“, settled the Republican.
Trump intensifies, if possible, the anti-immigrant qualifiers as the campaign progresses despite the fact that, barring unforeseen events, he is assured of the duel against Biden in November.
“They are killing our country, they are killing our people“, it “poison“, are “criminals”, psychopaths… The list is long and gets longer every week.
In reality, the majority of these migrants are Latin Americans fleeing poverty, violence or corruption. Trump threatens to deport them “massively” if he wins the elections.
“We are not a colony”
In an interview with the CBS program 60 Minutes, López Obrador boasted of having a ““very good relationship with the United States government (Biden), but not one of subordination.”
“We are an independent, free, sovereign country, we are not a colony, we are not a protectorate of any foreign country.”, he stated, returning to an idea that he repeats on every trip to the United States.
“President Biden is respectful of our sovereignty as President Trump was“said López Obrador.
Good harmony does not prevent discrepancies.
López Obrador has told the White House that Washington should invest billions each year to alleviate poverty in Latin America, ease sanctions on the leftist governments of Venezuela and Cuba and grant legal status to millions of Mexicans living in the United States. Joined. In vain.
In any case, they will not have to face each other to negotiate with Biden or Trump given that Mexico holds general elections at the beginning of June and López Obrador will leave office at the end of the year.
With the Trumpists, today, the main obstacle is a law “anti-immigrant” backed by Republicans that would allow Texas to detain and expel those who illegally cross the border from Mexico. For now, an appeals court has kept it in abeyance.
