白宫:移民车队在墨西哥北上,特朗普称不会接收并威胁对墨西哥关税翻倍

白宫11月12日发布消息称,一支移民车队正在墨西哥南部向北行进,特朗普总统同日表示,这些移民不会被美国接收,并威胁说,如果墨西哥不阻止车队,对墨西哥的关税将立即翻倍。
据路透社报道,这支车队周二从墨西哥 Chiapas 州的 Tapachula 出发,该市靠近危地马拉边境,车队规模估计约1,500人,其中包括许多家庭,周三已有1,000多人向北行进。报道说,上周美国中期选举中民主党获胜,让一些移民看到移民政策可能转向宽松的希望。白宫的发布援引车队中移民的话说,他们相信民主党会帮助他们进入美国,其中一名曾被美国遣返的尼加拉瓜移民说,前面可能有一条能进去的路。
特朗普11月12日在社交媒体上写道,庞大的车队正在形成并开始穿行墨西哥,但他们不会被接收,墨西哥必须现在就阻止他们,否则对墨西哥的关税将立即翻倍,不会有任何宽容。白宫的这份发布收录了这段表态。
白宫边境事务主管 Tom Homan 11月11日说,国会可能更蓝、德州可能更蓝,但白宫是红的,车队可以来到边境,但不会被释放进入美国,边境问题上一寸也不会让。国土安全部总法律顾问 James Percival 11月12日说,如果车队抵达南部边境,面对的将是准备充分的边境巡逻队,总统仍然是总统,中期选举不会改变这一点。
白宫的发布还列举了多名民主党议员近期的移民表态,包括众议员 Hakeem Jeffries、Ayanna Pressley 与 Rashida Tlaib 等人批评移民与海关执法局(ICE)执法、主张废除 ICE 的言论,并列举了德州多名民主党籍地方官员关于与 ICE 合作政策的表态。

White House: Migrant Caravan Marches North in Mexico; Trump Says Migrants Will Not Be Accepted and Threatens to Double Tariffs on Mexico
The White House said on November 12 that a migrant caravan is marching north through southern Mexico, and President Donald J. Trump said the same day that the migrants will not be accepted into the United States, threatening that tariffs on Mexico will be immediately doubled if Mexico does not stop the caravan.
According to Reuters, the caravan set off on Tuesday from Tapachula in Mexico's Chiapas state, near the border with Guatemala, and was estimated at about 1,500 people, including many families, with more than 1,000 people walking north on Wednesday. Reuters reported that the Democratic victory in last week's U.S. midterm elections had raised hopes among some migrants that U.S. immigration policy could become more welcoming. The White House release quoted migrants in the caravan saying they believed Democrats would help them enter the United States, including a Nicaraguan migrant who had previously been deported from the United States and said there might be a way in.
In a social media post on November 12, Trump wrote that huge caravans are forming and beginning their march through Mexico, but that they will not be accepted, that Mexico must stop them now, and that if it does not, tariffs on Mexico will be immediately doubled, with no leniency. The White House release included that statement.
White House Border Czar Tom Homan said on November 11 that Congress and Texas may be more blue, but the White House is red, and that the caravans can come to the border but will not be released into the United States, adding that the administration is not giving one inch on the border. James Percival, General Counsel of the Department of Homeland Security, said on November 12 that if the caravan reaches the southern border, it will find a Border Patrol that is extremely ready, that the President is still the President, and that the midterms do not change that.
The White House release also listed recent immigration statements by Democratic lawmakers, including Representatives Hakeem Jeffries, Ayanna Pressley and Rashida Tlaib criticizing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and calling for ICE to be abolished, as well as statements by Democratic local officials in Texas about cooperation with ICE.
