Mexico Passes Proposal To US To Ban Donald Trump From Entering Mexico by hakinze00(m): 9:40pm On Mar 03, 2016 |
Lawmakers in Mexico City have unanimously
passed a proposal to press the federal
government to ban Republican front runner
Donald Trump from entering the country.
The proposal, known as a "point of agreement,"
cannot be enforced by the local government
and is meant as a symbolic move by Mexico
City lawmakers in light of Trump’s ongoing
comments about Mexican immigrants in the
U.S. and his proposal for a wall along the U.S.-
Mexico border.
"Following xenophobic messages against
Mexican migrants in the United States, we urge
the federal government to suspend or prohibit
U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump entry
to Mexico," Local deputy Mauricio Toledo said,
according to Milenio . "The principle of
equality must be understood above all as equal
treatment, without discrimination, and the
issues that matter to the majority of a
community are susceptible to be protected by
the state."
Another Mexico City lawmaker called Trump’s
personality “egocentric and primitive” and
compared the Republican candidate to one of
the most infamous world leaders of all time.
"Hitler was very popular, very popular, he was
liked, his nationalist stance defended German
values,” lawmaker Victor Hugo Romo told
Noticias MSV . “In my view, Donald Trump is
virtually a replica: sexist, misogynist, and he is
all for toilet politics, he doesn’t respect
diversity.”
Despite the proposal, the government of
Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto is taking
a more diplomatic approach when dealing with
Trump.
On Tuesday, the Mexican government outlined
a plan to address its unexpected central role in
the U.S. presidential campaign – and it doesn't
include getting into verbal duels with any of the
candidates.
"We could win the front page of all the
newspapers here or in other places with a
swear word and the next day that would not be
good for anyone," said Francisco Guzmán, a
spokesperson for Peña Nieto's office.
The reference was in response to former
Mexican President Vicente Fox comment that
he is not “to pay for that f***ing wall” when
pressed by Jorge Ramos about Trump’s border
plan.
Trump has refused to back down on his
comments despite criticism from Hispanic
groups in the U.S., his rival candidates and the
Mexican government.
“100 percent Mexico is going to pay,” Trump
told a reporter who asked a question about
immigration following the Super Tuesday
elections. “The reason is I am a business man, I
know what I am doing.”
