Mexico's Foreign Minister Defends Migrants' Contributions to US Economy

Mexico's Foreign Minister, Juan Ramón de la Fuente, recently addressed the situation of Mexican migrants detained in the United States. In his statement, he highlighted that approximately 95% of the 4.9 million undocumented Mexicans in the US have been working there for over five years. This underscores their significant contribution to the US economy. "The vast majority of our countrymen in the US are good, hardworking people," de la Fuente stated, emphasizing their positive impact. Mexico's consular network is actively working to ensure their well-being and protect their rights. This proactive approach demonstrates Mexico's commitment to supporting its citizens abroad and fostering a constructive dialogue with US authorities.
