Mexico City, Jan 21 (Prensa Latina) The program ¨Mexico embraces you¨, announced in this capital, ratifies today the commitment of the government of President Claudia Sheinbaum with the support to nationals, in the face of possible deportations from the United States.

The Secretary of the Interior, Rosa Icela Rodríguez, presented the strategy in a context marked by the return to the White House of Donald Trump, who was inaugurated yesterday as president of the neighboring country and threatens to carry out such expulsions.

“Of course we do not agree (with the expulsions), but in case it is done” the conationals will be received and will have access to the social programs implemented by the administration, she explained during a press conference.

Health services for them and their families, transportation to their places of origin and access to telephone communications will also be included, she said, adding that they will continue to generate “living conditions and create a favorable environment to meet their needs”.

The plan, instructed by Sheinbaum and in which the entire government participates, has protocols for receiving returnees at border ports and airports.

Each of the countrymen who arrive in our country -she said- will be given a card with two thousand pesos (about 100 dollars), “money that they will be able to use immediately to cover their expenses in the transfer to their communities of origin”.

The nation “will do everything necessary to defend and care for its citizens in Mexico and will do whatever is necessary to receive those who are repatriated, in order to reincorporate them into their native country,” Rodríguez said.
