美国总统特朗普警告说,美国将派军队关闭美国-墨西哥边界,除非墨西哥能够阻止大批中美洲移民前来美国。
I am watching the Democrat Party led (because they want Open Borders and existing weak laws) assault on our country by Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, whose leaders are doing little to stop this large flow of people, INCLUDING MANY CRIMINALS, from entering Mexico to U.S.....

....In addition to stopping all payments to these countries, which seem to have almost no control over their population, I must, in the strongest of terms, ask Mexico to stop this onslaught - and if unable to do so I will call up the U.S. Military and CLOSE OUR SOUTHERN BORDER!..

....The assault on our country at our Southern Border, including the Criminal elements and DRUGS pouring in, is far more important to me, as President, than Trade or the USMCA. Hopefully Mexico will stop this onslaught at their Northern Border. All Democrats fault for weak laws!

特朗普总统周四早晨在推特上指责民主党人带领移民对美国进行“攻击”,他说有些移民是“罪犯”,并说如果墨西哥不停止对美国的这种“猛攻”,美国就会终止对中美洲国家的“一切援助”。
特朗普将减少移民以及在美墨边境修建隔离墙作为其移民政策的基石。
特朗普发出威胁的前几天,数千名洪都拉斯移民乘车穿越危地马拉进入墨西哥,这些移民希望进入美国来逃避该地区的贫穷与暴力。
美国国务卿蓬佩奥星期四启程前往巴拿马和墨西哥城访问。他周五将与墨西哥总统举行会晤。墨西哥没有立即对川普有关中美洲移民的最新推文做出回应。
