Trump's new immigration plan puts Mexican citizens in challenging position
Former president announces huge deportation operation targeting millions of undocumented immigrants. Mexico might face biggest impact as its citizens make up almost half of US unauthorized residents
Donald Trump is working-up plans for a big-scale deportation operation (which he labels as unprecedented in US history). The ex-presidents initiative targets around 11M undocumented people living in america
The program would hit Mexico extra-hard; since about half of all unauthorized US residents come from there. Experts point out that sending people back to Mexico is way less complicated than deportations to far-away nations like Venezuela — both money-wise and logistics-wise
The whole situation creates a unique set of circumstances: Mexican authorities must deal with possibility of receiving millions of returning citizens while US border-control systems prepare for whats likely to be a complex operation
