A few hours before the deadline set by the Trump administration to implement widespread tariffs, Ricardo Anaya, coordinator of the PAN Senators, urged for an interparliamentary meeting between lawmakers from Mexico and the United States. Anaya warned that the Mexican economy would be in serious danger if the tariffs come into effect, mentioning it would be a devastating blow to Mexican families.
"I say it clearly, the Mexican economy would collapse, like a snap. It would be extremely serious and devastating, not just for the economy in abstract, but for the economies of Mexican families," commented Ricardo Anaya. In a conference, Anaya pointed out that U.S. senators are the only counterbalance to Donald Trump's decisions, highlighting that they can influence them.
Regarding the recent extradition of 29 drug lords to the United States, Senator Anaya stated that this delivery was a concession made by the Mexican government to the United States. Anaya emphasized the notable change in the Mexican government's stance in recent weeks concerning criminals, considering that it confirms a policy they had previously denied, that of "hugs, not bullets."
"It is noteworthy, in recent weeks, the activism of the Mexican government against criminals, which confirms that there was a policy they denied of hugs, not bullets," concluded Ricardo Anaya.
