Sheinbaum announces Mexico has welcomed over 13,400 deportees, including foreign nationals

Mexico has received over 13,400 individuals deported from the United States since Donald Trump assumed the presidency on January 20, according to Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, who spoke at a press conference on Friday.

“13,455 people have been deported, of which 10,485 are Mexican and 2,970 are foreign nationals,” Sheinbaum stated.

Regarding the Mexican nationals, the president added that around 500 individuals have been able to find employment through “México te Abraza,” a government initiative to support deported individuals with private sector assistance. This program was launched in January in response to Trump’s announcement of mass deportations.

As for the foreign nationals, Sheinbaum explained that “for humanitarian reasons, if they are at the border, we can receive non-Mexican individuals and, if they wish, we can help them return to their countries.”

Last week, Sheinbaum confirmed that Mexico had sent flights with migrants to Honduras, noting that these were individuals who had requested voluntary return.

MPV Denounces Electoral Blockade as Secretary-General is Disqualified for May Elections

The anti-Chavista party Movement for Venezuela (MPV) denounced on Monday that it was “prevented” from submitting its candidates for the regional and legislative elections on May 25, elections rejected by opposition leaders Edmundo González Urrutia and María Corina Machado.

“MPV, being an active and recognized party in the National Electoral Council (CNE), was prevented from submitting candidates for the current electoral process,” stated the political group through a communiqué on X.

Additionally, the group denounced that its Secretary-General, Simón Calzadilla, was “suddenly disqualified,” as the opposition leader warned last Friday. He also explained that he attempted to access the CNE’s automated candidate submission system but, as he added, the portal showed that he was not authorized to create a user and submit the MPV candidates.

For the party, its “strong decision” to participate in the May elections “highlighted the true nature of this electoral process,” which it described as “extremely flawed.”

“Let’s have a powerful march of the working class, the combat bodies, and the Bolivarian National Militia in all the cities of the country, from end to end, working class and armed people in the streets shouting for peace,” said the chavista leader in a broadcast on the state channel Venezolana de Televisión (VTV), surrounded by military authorities.

He also stated that Venezuela is more armed than “ever” to “defend the sacred dream of a free homeland, the sacred soil of a heroic land, Venezuela.”

Venezuela accuses Guyana of “warlike intentions” after UK defense deal

Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez denounced what she called “warlike intentions” from Guyana on Saturday (April 12, 2025), following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Guyana and the United Kingdom aimed at strengthening bilateral defense cooperation.

“Guyana threatens Venezuela with its founding fathers. The UK and the U.S. are the architects behind the territorial dispossession of our Guayana Esequiba. These are the same actors who forged a fraudulent arbitration award in 1899 to strip Venezuela of its land,” Rodríguez stated via Telegram.

Rodríguez, who also serves as Venezuela’s Minister of Hydrocarbons, warned the region about “these drums of war, in clear violation of the CELAC declaration that recognizes Latin America and the Caribbean as a zone of peace.”

“Venezuela will stand firm in defending its legitimate rights, sovereignty, and territorial integrity in all scenarios,” she added.
