Mexico’s President Andres Manuel López Obrador has condemned Texas’s anti-migrant buoys, calling the border enforcement tactic on the Rio Grande river “inhumane” after bodies were found in the waters that flow along the US-Mexico border.
he floating barrier, which is intended to block migrants crossing from Mexico, was installed last month without federal authorization, according to the US Justice Department, which is suing the state of Texas over its use of the buoys.
The Mexican government has also decried Abbott’s decision to float the buoys. Last week, Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Alicia Bárcena Ibarra said her country had sent its second diplomatic note to the US complaining about the barriers.
They not only violate two treaties between the US and Mexico, she said, but a slide that accompanied her remarks claimed that a portion of the 305 meters of deployed buoy is on “Mexican territory.”
López Obrador on Thursday warned that the buoys violated Mexico’s “sovereignty and human rights,” adding that “we are already demanding that these buoys be removed.”

This does nothing, but Texas’s program will collapse due to cost soon anyway
It should collapse because it's a program designed to kill people that have the legal right to seek asylum. These christo-fascists are TRYING to kill migrants
Not to be a dick but if they are seeking asylum, wouldn't it be an open shut case for them to walk through the front door and claim it?
Understandable. The US/Mexico border is massive and ports of entry aren't every 5 miles or so. These are by and large exploited and vulnerable people and won't see this as a deterrent. A sizeable portion of these migrants aren't running TO America. They're running FROM being conscripted into a gang or something similar
