Mexico says it has received more than 150,000 deportees from the United States since the start of the Trump administration.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum says that includes more than 140,000 Mexican deportees that came from the United States this year. In addition, she says her country has received close to 12,000 non-Mexican deportees from the United States.
The Mexican government hasn’t released a breakdown of the countries of origin for those people. In the past, Mexico has received deportees from countries with which the U.S. has strained diplomatic ties, like Venezuela.
This comes as President Donald Trump carries out immigration raids and deportations throughout the United States.
Meanwhile, the flows of migrants coming through Mexico toward the U.S.-Mexico border have dropped significantly this past year.

The U.S. and Mexico will meet next week to begin talks on the USMCA, the trade agreement that governs much of the economic relationship between the two countries as well as Canada. The USMCA is one of the major reasons that trade with Mexico has remained relatively steady in spite of the broader uncertainty created by President Trump's ill fated tariff policy.
