Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has condemned U.S. immigration raids and National Guard deployment in Los Angeles, calling for reforms instead of enforcement.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has criticized the U.S. government over recent immigration raids and the deployment of the National Guard in Los Angeles.
The federal raids have sparked protests in the city, where immigration authorities arrested at least 44 people for alleged violations.
Sheinbaum said the issue should be addressed through dialogue and comprehensive reform, not enforcement raids.
U.S. President Donald Trump has pledged to deport record numbers of undocumented migrants and tighten control over the U.S.-Mexico border, setting a target of 3,000 arrests per day by immigration authorities.
The National Guard began deploying as protests entered a third day in Los Angeles, leading to clashes between demonstrators and police.
