Mexican Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard said that Mexico would meet with 19 countries in the coming weeks in an attempt to boost support for a plan to stem illegal migration toward the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tens of thousands of mostly Central American migrants have been crossing Mexico to reach its northern border with the United States, with an angered U.S. President Donald Trump threatening to impose tariffs on Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe already have 19 countries we will meet in the next couple of weeks so that this plan and its actions will grow,\u201d Ebrard said during the president\u2019s regular morning news conference. \u201cNow it is about developed countries participating.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ebrard said Mexico was investigating a network of human smugglers, including that of unaccompanied minors, which he said was on the rise, and the financing of these operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said that Mexico would evaluate the results of the deal it had reached with the United States to stem migration north.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe want a good relationship with President Trump,\u201d Lopez Obrador reiterated, adding that, regardless of the often difficult and complex relationship, he had seen a willingness from Trump to come to an agreement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
