The president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, asked US President-elect Donald Trump to lift the blockades imposed on Venezuela and Cuba, pointing out that these sanctions increase the flow of migrants to the US.
Sheinbaum and Trump held a phone call on Wednesday, November 27, where they discussed the issue of migration.
During her morning press conference on Thursday, November 28, Sheinbaum reported that she proposed to the US president-elect to implement new measures to to mitigate the effects of migration.
In this regard, she stressed that it is necessary to adopt a more comprehensive and coordinated approach. Therefore, she suggested the lifting of the economic blockades imposed on Venezuela and Cuba, as it would be a beneficial measure to reduce migration from those countries.
“End the blockades on Cuba and Venezuela, because all they do is make the people suffer and create phenomena like migration,” Sheinbaum declared.
Yeah I figured she’d be framing the way to end migration as being through economic prosperity. Shame trump won’t listen, but it’s a good shot
