In fresh weeks Mexico has welcomed more than 4,000 people deported from the US, including citizens from another countries. Mexico's president Claudia Sheinbaum said that the Mexicans were the “significant majority” of those deported to Mexico. any of them came to the country with 4 civilian aircraft.
The Mexican authorities stress that after the inauguration of U.S. president Donald Trump there was no crucial increase in the number of people deported to Mexico. Sheinbaum added that her government did not agree to the Trump administration reopening the stay in Mexico (Staying in Mexico) program whereby migrants from another countries are to be sent back to Mexico and there await their requests to stay in the USA.
According to Reuters agency data, the Mexican authorities refused US administration approval to land an American military aircraft with deportees. The interviewers did not give the reason for this decision. After taking power in the US on January 20, Donald Trump announced a state of emergency on the Mexican border, sent 1.5 1000 soldiers to her, declared Mexican drug cartels to be “foreign terrorist organizations”, changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the U.S. Gulf and threatened with 25% duties on goods from Mexico.
The Mexican government announced readiness to receive Mexicans deported from the US. As part of the “Mexico takes you into embrace” program, shelter camps for tens of thousands of people have been set up in border cities where they are to receive shelter, food and medical care. This programme aims to support migrants who have been deported from the US and request aid returning to their families and communities.
According to United Nations data, in 2022 more than 1.5 million migrants crossed the U.S. and Mexico border, of which around 70% are Mexicans. The Mexican authorities estimation that in the next fewer years the number of migrants could increase to over 2 million per year.
To address this situation, the Mexican Government has implemented a number of programmes and initiatives to support migrants and prevent illegal immigration. 1 specified program is “Mexico takes you in” which offers shelter, food and medical care to migrants who have been deported from the US.
Another programme is the “Migrant Support Programme” which offers financial assistance and support to migrants who want to return to their families and communities in Mexico. This programme aims to prevent illegal immigration and to support migrants' return to their homes.
According to planet Bank data, in 2022 Mexico received over $30 billion in cash shipments from migrants who work in the US. These cash shipments represent a crucial part of Mexico's GDP and are an crucial origin of income for many families in the country.
However, migration and deportation are not only economical but besides social and political issues. The Mexican and US authorities must cooperate to find solutions to this complex problem. 1 solution is to make a program that allows migrants to legally and safely emigrate to the US.
Another solution is to support migrants who have been deported from the US so that they can return to their families and communities in Mexico. The Mexican Government must besides increase its support for migrants who request assistance and support in their return home.
Finally, migration and deportation are an issue that affects not only Mexico and the US, but besides another countries in the region. The authorities in these countries must cooperate to find solutions to this complex problem and to support migrants who request assistance and support.
