Change trains: Mexico 好意s N. Mexico over Texas

MEXICO CITY (AP) - The Mexican 政府 is snubbing Texas and moving a 提案するd 国境 rail link to New Mexico after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott 支援するd up 国境 crossings with 明言する/公表する 査察s in April.

Mexican 外交官s met Tuesday with U.S. 長官 of 母国 安全 Alejandro Mayorkas and touted a rail line linking Mexican seaports on the 太平洋の with the San Jeronimo-Santa Teresa crossing in New Mexico, about 20 miles (36 キロメーターs) west of El Paso, Texas.

Mexico had considered a 大勝する through Texas, but in 最近の days 公式の/役人s have said they can no longer rely on that 明言する/公表する. Abbott had 要求するd all 商業の トラックで運ぶs from Mexico to を受ける extra 査察s, tying up traffic and 原因(となる)ing millions in losses.

Roberto Velasco ?lvarez, Mexico's director for North American 事件/事情/状勢s, wrote in his Twitter account about the 会合 in Washington.

"There is a 地域の 見通し and 管理/経営 of 移住, 合法的な pathways and more 開発 選択s, 同様に as 前進するs in 組織/基盤/下部構造 with New Mexico that will 許す us to develop 即座の 代案/選択肢s to 商業の traffic that 現在/一般に passes through Texas," Velasco ?lvarez wrote.

Mexico's Economy 長官 Tatiana Clouthier was more 強烈な last week on the 運命/宿命 of a 提案するd rail line linking the 太平洋の coast port of Mazatlan in Mexico's Sinaloa 明言する/公表する with the U.S. and Canada.

"There is a very important 事業/計画(する) that will hopefully be finished soon that will connect Sinaloa and, we used to say Texas, but I don't think we're going to use Texas anymore because we cannot put all our eggs in one basket and be held 人質 to those who want to use 貿易(する) as a political 問題/発行する," Clouthier told a 商売/仕事 会議/協議会.

"So we are going to look for another 関係 point because we cannot go through again what we went through a few weeks ago," she said.

Some truckers 報告(する)/憶測d waiting more than 30 hours to cross during the 明言する/公表する 査察s. Others 封鎖するd one of the world´s busiest 貿易(する) 橋(渡しをする)s in 抗議する.

Abbott, who is up for reelection in November and has made the 国境 his 最高の,を越す 問題/発行する, fully 解除するd the 査察s after reaching 協定s with 隣接地の Mexican 明言する/公表するs that 輪郭(を描く) new かかわり合いs to 国境 安全.

But those Mexican 明言する/公表するs have little 当局 or 動員可能数 to 迎撃する 麻薬s or migrant 密輸するing - the two 問題/発行するs Abbott 特記する/引用するd in 器具/実施するing the 査察s, though 明言する/公表する 公式の/役人s 設立する little of either - so the 協定s were seen as a way of 圧力ing Mexican 大統領 Andr?s Manuel L?pez Obrador to 行為/法令/行動する.

L?pez Obrador, has 述べるd Abbott's 活動/戦闘s as "vile." But Abbott hasn't 支援するd 負かす/撃墜する, and has said he is considering invoking 弁護 力/強力にするs by 宣言するing that Texas is 存在 "侵略するd."

On Monday, L?pez Obrador 小衝突d it off, 説, "Now that there are 選挙s, some 政治家,政治屋s in the 部隊d 明言する/公表するs are making 告訴,告発s."

"But how are they going to talk about an 侵略?" L?pz Obrador said, referring to the fact that Texas - like much of the 残り/休憩(する) of the U.S. 南西 - once belonged to Mexico.

Mexican Foreign Relations 長官 Marcelo Ebrard said Mayorkas had 表明するd 関心s regarding the scheduled May 23 解除するing of 肩書を与える 42, the pandemic-時代 health 支配する that 否定するs migrants a chance to 捜し出す 亡命.

"His 視野 is just that there could be a problem with 増加するd (migrant) flows, and for that 推論する/理由 we are going to work regionally" on the 問題/発行する, Ebrard said.

Ebrard also said Mexico continued to argue for Cuba and Venezuela to …に出席する the 近づいている 首脳会議 of the Americas in June in Los Angeles. The Biden 行政 has 示唆するd that Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua are ありそうもない to be 招待するd.
