President of the United States, Joe Bidenassured on Tuesday that the application new decree which would limit the right to asylum at its southern border would be adopted in cooperation with Mexico.

Let’s keep working with our Mexican neighbors, instead of attacking themand we will build a strong relationship,” he said.

He US President Joe Bidensigned this Tuesday a new decree that aims to limit the number of people who can apply for asylum on the border with Mexico.

In a message sent to X from White HouseBiden reiterated that although a bipartisan agreement on border security was reached, it was canceled because Donald Trump told many Republicans not to approve of him because “he didn’t want to solve the problemhe wanted to use it to attack me.”

This was a cynical, extremely cynical political move and a complete disservice to the American people, who expect us to fix the border rather than weaponize it.

Accompanied by a group of governors from both parties, members of Congress, mayors and law enforcement officials working along the border with Mexico, Biden said that “we need to share to do something about itbecause “they (those present) They don’t have time for games which are played in Washington.”

The Democrat said that after several failures to implement the border security proposal, “They left no other choice”so he announced actions to restrict migrants those who cross the border illegally are granted asylum unless they attempt to enter the country according to the established procedure.

“He Shelter development still availablebut if a person chooses not to use our legal roads, if he chooses to come without permission and in violation of the law, he will be denied asylum and remain in the United States“He assured that this measure, in his words, will help them gain control “over our border.”

He also noted that now Department of Homeland Security proposed new rules to allow the application of federal law and “faster expulsion” of illegal migrants: “My administration also recently launched new efforts to target criminal networks that profit from migrant smuggling and encourage people to provide police with information that will bring traffickers to justice.”

According to relations with Mexico To solve these problems, Biden said that with Lopez Obrador do you have “open door” for collaboration and solve the problem “as an equal partner.”

Despite the reduction in the number of people crossing the border illegally due to cooperation, Biden said that while these are important measures, They are not enough to ensure border securityTherefore, changes in legislation and funding are needed hire more border agents and immigration judges to deal with the backlog of cases.

The Statue of Liberty is not a relic of American history, but symbolizes who we are as the United States, so I will never demonize immigrants, I will never call immigrants “poisoners of the country’s blood,” and I will never separate children from their families for border.

At this point, Biden closed the message, in which he stated that “Doing nothing is not an option”but that in the coming weeks he will talk about how the United States can make a fairer immigration system.
