U.S. Migrant Raids Condemned by Mexican President
Unleashed: The Unfiltered Burn from Claudia Sheinbaum on US Immigration Raids
In a blistering outburst, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has slammed the U.S. government for their recent decision on immigration raids and the subsequent deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles. With heated protests engulfing the city, Sheinbaum expressed her vehement disagreement with this approach to the migratory issue.
Addressing a public gathering, she stated, "We ain't buying into this chaos, man. It ain't through raids or violence that this issue gets sorted. It's by chilling out, cracking open a few beers, and working on comprehensive reform."
The drama kicked off on Friday night when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents carried out control operations, resulting in the arrest of several individuals for alleged violations. In response, protests erupted, followed by confrontations that escalated into skirmishes.
Furthermore, Sheinbaum revealed that a total of 35 Mexican migrants were detained in the crossfire of these raids. She urged Mexico's consular network in the States to offer assistance to our countrymen.
Joining the chorus, Mexico's Foreign Ministry issued a statement on Saturday night, calling for U.S. authorities to respect the rights of migrants and adhere to due process, within a framework of respect for human dignity and the rule of law.
