In his pre-inauguration phase, Donald Trump intensified anti-immigration rhetoric and threatened to implement the largest deportations in U.S. history while militarizing the U.S.-Mexico border. His administration's approach created tension with Latin American leaders, especially Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum, who asserted that Mexico deserves to be treated as an equal. She addressed the fears of Mexican nationals living in the U.S. by emphasizing their importance to the American economy. Approximately four million undocumented Mexican immigrants reside in the United States, which underlines the complexities of the new administration’s policies toward immigration and international relations.
President Claudia Sheinbaum emphasized the importance of Mexicans in the U.S. economy and reassured undocumented Mexicans that they are not alone during potential deportations.
