From the National Palace, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador assured that the United States presidents used the construction of the border wall as an advertisement.
“In total, they built 1,482 kilometers of walls, which is less than half of the entire border, but They use it for advertising with all due respect.Because imagine a 3,800 km border where the wall is only about 45.48%, that’s the ratio,” he said.
After presenting a list with the names of former US presidents (Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump) and the length of the border wall they have built during their presidency, López Obrador thanked Joe Biden for not appearing on this page. list because he still doesn’t build walls.
“We are very grateful to President Biden that they are not on the list, the first time, also with all due respect, this is anti-immigrant propaganda, this is xenophobiaBecause there are sectors that are against migrants, they forget that this great nation was created by migrants from all over the world, but this is part of the internal politics, and sometimes even the politicking that happens in the United States, as it happens everywhere. it is not exclusive to anything from more than one country,” he confirmed.
From the National Palace, the President of Mexico once again thanked Joe Biden for not building another border wall and for the humanitarian visas issued to migrants from Central America.
“The first one, the only one who doesn’t build a wall, is President Biden, and we recognize this because the problem of immigration is not solved this way. The causes must be eliminated, as we have said many times. People do not leave cities for pleasure, they do it out of necessity, and the President Biden understands this, he supports people to stay in their places of origin, now he supports temporary or humanitarian visas. that there were no Venezuelan, Cuban, Nicaraguan, Colombian brothers, and that migration was growing not only of the population of Central American countries, our Central American brothers, but also in other countries, ”he stressed.
At his morning conference in Mexico City, Mexico’s chief executive said he would continue to press for the US government to deal with the millions of Mexicans who live and work in the United States.
“We also insist on resolving the situation of the millions of Mexican migrants who live and work honestly in the United States.it depends a lot on the United States Congress, we will continue to push, and we also thank President Biden that, even though the regularization plan they proposed is not yet in place, we will continue to push for it,” he pointed out .
