L Passo, Texas (Border Report) The pressure of the United States on Mexico was intensified last month.
Trump has slapped the customs tariff on Mexican steel, aluminum, auto parts and everything is not covered with permanent free trade approval, and Mexican President Claudia Shinbom is pressing to fulfill the delivery of huge water to the United States, and the United States also stresses regulations on monetary transport operations on which many Mexican families depend.
Despite the great hopes last summer after the election of the first president in that country, Mexico also faces its own pressure at home.
Weeks after the election of Shinbom, analysts warned that she had entered a minefield. The new social programs were put in the national budget of Mexico; Cartcity of drugs began to anger in the state of Sinalua. The United States elected a president whose priority was to close the borders and deport as many immigrants as possible. Moreover, Mexico is witnessing a decrease in crude oil production, and some raw charges that are suspended in Texas and Louismiana due to the high water and salt content.
However, the current controversy includes television, radio and electronic advertisements run by the Ministry of Internal Security in the Mexican media.
The Minister of National Security, Christie sleep, appears in advertisements that tell immigrants of any unconfirmed words not to come to the United States or will be hunted and sent again.
The ads did not notice at the beginning, but they ran at the time of peak last Sunday during the soccer matches in the Mexican League that millions of people see and usually paint strong feelings.
Shenbum has put in a position that enables her to explain its national men why the foreign government was able to inform its people of what to do. Distinguished ads described and promised to change the law to ban foreign governments from advertising management except for tourism. I also asked private television stations not to manage the ads.
Meanwhile, Mexico is two consecutive months, as transfers – Mexican money abroad – decreased to the homeland. Transfers represent about 4 % of Mexico GDP and reached 64.7 billion dollars last year.
Economists have several interpretations of what is happening, most of them include the United States.
First, they say that inflation strikes the books of the pocket of Mexican workers in cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago and Houston. Whenever they pay in the grocery store or rent, the more they say they send them to relatives in the homeland.
They also refer to the increasing concerns about immigration and customs raids in migrant societies. Gossip is that it pushes illegally Mexicans in the United States to save more if they are deported. It may also prevent them from getting out often, which reduces the number of times the transfers.
A new potential obstacle is the Ministry of Treasury list, almost entered into force now. It requires money transfer companies in several provinces in Texas and California to document cash transactions between $ 200 and $ 10,000 and the government’s identity requires the sender.
The Treasury says that this is to reduce money laundering by national criminal organizations that give drugs from Mexico to the United States, then collect profits and send them to the Cartel leaders.
Defenders are afraid that this will inhibit migrants from using these services and reduce transfers.
