Trump Announces Policies Impacting Mexico

The President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, has announced a series of decrees that have sparked various reactions, ranging from surprise to concern. On one hand, there has been talk of a possible collaboration between the governments of Mexico and the United States, despite the fact that this collaboration had been interrupted during the previous administration. However, there is uncertainty regarding the Mexican government's ability to respond to these measures.

One of the proposed decrees highlighted the simplification of genders, recognizing only two: male and female. Additionally, it proposed the creation of a government based on merit and with a "color-blind" approach. Moreover, there was mention of the intention to declare Mexican cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, a measure that generated concern in various sectors.

Regarding immigration policy, an emergency declaration on the southern border was anticipated along with a return to the "Remain in Mexico" program, which would imply increased pressure in the border area due to the flow of migrants from various nationalities. The postponement of tariffs has also been part of the decisions made, which some attribute to the president's previous failures in trade issues.

Furthermore, Trump expressed his intention to strengthen the military as a measure to prevent war conflicts and mentioned his goal of being recognized as a unifier and promoter of peace. In his inaugural speech, he reaffirmed much of his campaign promises, which will translate into government instructions and decrees in the coming days.

Finally, the American president attacked what he termed "woke ideology," criticizing diversity, equity, and inclusion policies. This has sparked debate about the potential repercussions of these measures on the economy and international relations.
