Mexicos Secretary of Defense Luis Sandoval said that nearly 15000 troops had been sent to the U.S.-Mexico border and approximately another 2000 National Guard troops to the Mexico-Guatemala border. In the northern part of the country we have deployed a total of almost 15000 troops composed of National Guard elements and military units Sandoval said. This deployment comes after President Donald Trump threatened to raise tariffs on Mexico among the greatest trade partners of the United States unless the country acted to lessen the crisis on the border. The president relented on the threat after saying he made a deal with Mexico. Migration is not a crime Sandoval said in his statement it is an administrative responsibility. Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) praised the news without confirming it in a tweet. If true what a message to skeptics who repeated talking points that President Trumps agreement with Mexico was an empty piece of paper Meadows tweeted. And perhaps more importantly he added what a message to Washington Democrats who are now being outdone by MEXICO on securing Americas own border.
