In the first two weeks of Donald Trump's second presidential term, the mass deportation plans implemented since his first day in office led to more than 8,000 deportations of Mexican nationals.
The number was announced by Mexico's National Institute of Migration (INM) on Feb. 6. While speaking at a press conference in a migrant center in the border city of Reynosa, INM Commissioner Francisco Garduño said that despite the deportations, the important thing is that "humanitarian policies" are put in place by the Mexican government to help migrants, which were planned by officials way before Trump's inauguration.
