Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has publicly rejected the criminalization of migrants following the inauguration of the new detention center known as "Alligator Alcatraz" in Florida, promoted by former U.S. President Donald Trump. Sheinbaum emphasized that migrants, particularly Latinos and Mexicans, are vital to the U.S. economy and should be treated with respect and support upon their return to Mexico. She also expressed opposition to the $170 billion budget proposed by Trump to reinforce deportations and build detention centers like the one in Florida. Additionally, Sheinbaum criticized Trump's announcement of additional tariffs on countries strengthening ties with the BRICS bloc, underscoring Mexico's commitment to sovereignty and cooperation. Regarding the newly imposed U.S. tariff on copper, Sheinbaum noted that Mexican copper exports benefit the U.S. industry and economy and indicated that Mexican officials will engage in discussions about this global trade agreement soon.
