What would New York be without the Mixtecs? That&#039;s why we call it &#039;Puebla York,&#039; because there they work in services, they work in construction, they also bring the economy forward there,&quot; said the president.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sheinbaum pointed out that 7 out of 10 farm workers in the United States are of Mexican origin and asked: &quot;Would Americans have food on the table if it weren&#039;t for Mexican men and women?&quot;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The official also explained that the best field workers are Mexicans. \u201cLet no one think otherwise.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He added that the best construction workers are Mexicans, as well as those who work in the tourism sector.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe are a great people, a wonderful people. Mexico is a cultural power and our brothers and sisters on the other side are the best workers, they are good people who help their families and help the economy of the United States,\u201d he stressed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the face of this new period, which begins tomorrow with President Trump: \u201cFirst, we are going to defend the Mexicans; the consulates there already have more lawyers to support them, they should call the consulates on the phone because they will be supporting them in any case, and if they decide to return to Mexico or come to Mexico, here they are welcomed with open arms, here we embrace the Mexicans.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But, he added, \u201cin any case, the United States economy could not function without our countrymen and women.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, she pointed out that during the administration of former President Andr\u00e9s Manuel L\u00f3pez Obrador a good understanding was reached with Trump, &quot;that is why I think we will reach a good understanding, we will always understand each other, dialogue helps, but in any case, let it be heard well, let it be heard far away, Mexico is not a colony of anyone, it is not a protectorate of anyone, Mexico is a free, independent, and sovereign country; and we will always defend the people of Mexico, the nation, and our homeland,&quot; said Claudia Sheinbaum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this context, he recalled that Mexico is great because of the civilizations that gave rise to the country, \u201cthe Mixtecs, the Mixtec women, who are a great people, like other indigenous peoples of our country who today have rights in the Constitution. Mexico is great because of its history.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>You may be interested in:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/peninsula360press.com\/en\/consuls-in-united-states\/\">Sheinbaum asks consuls in the US to approach Mexican immigrants more and not just \u201crelevant\u201d people<\/a><\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Escucha esta nota: &nbsp; \u201cEstados Unidos que no podr\u00eda avanzar su econom\u00eda si no fuera por los mexicanos y las mexicanas que viven del otro lado as\u00ed es la verdad\u201d, refiri\u00f3 la presidenta de M\u00e9xico, Claudia Sheinbaum, a tan solo un d\u00eda de que el presidente electo Donald Trump tome protesta como mandatario.
