Mexico Sends 15,000 Troops To The Border In A Push To Halt Migrant Tide & Avoid U.S. Tariffs!

Mexico has deployed almost 15,000 soldiers and members of its National Guard in the north of the country to stem the flow of illegal immigration across the border into the United States. Mexico has not traditionally used security forces to stop undocumented foreign citizens leaving the country for the U.S., and photographs of militarized police catching Central American and Cuban women at the border in recent days have met with criticism. Mexico is trying to curb a surge of migrants from third countries crossing its territory in order to reach the United States, under the threat of tariffs on its exports by U.S. President Donald Trump, who has made tightening border security a priority.
