(The Guardian) US secretary Rubio visits Mexico amid crackdown on cartels
Secretary of state Marco Rubio will meet with Mexican leaders on Wednesday during his first trip to the country since taking office, as the Trump administration pursues a sweeping crackdown on illegal immigration and drug cartels and seeks to counter China’s influence in Latin America.

Washington’s top diplomat will visit Mexico City and Ecuador in his latest trip to the region, where he will meet with counterparts and the presidents of the two countries, Reuters reported.

Rubio, the first Latino US secretary of state, traveled to countries in Central America and the Caribbean during his first overseas trip after taking office as the administration sought to shift back focus to Latin America.

The trip to Mexico and Ecuador comes after the US. military attacked a vessel from Venezuela in the Caribbean on Tuesday that US officials said was carrying illegal drugs. It was the first known operation since the Trump administration’s recent surge of warships to the region that has raised tensions between Washington and Caracas.

The visit comes as Trump has also intensified his campaign to deport migrants in the US illegally, sending federal agents into major US cities and pushing for high daily arrest quotas.

Trump's foreign policy is confusing without clean cut definitions. His approach is quite confusing and really damaging United States government reputation on foreign countries. Trump's determination to deport immigrants illegally is total breach of human rights!

Trump's foreign policy is confusing without clean cut definitions. His approach is quite confusing and really damaging United States government reputation on foreign countries.

Compared to past administrations which (a) paid lip service to American foreign policy and (b) ignored legitimate problems in order to further political goals, more and more Americans are starting to warm over to Trump's brand of foreign policy.

Trump's determination to deport immigrants illegally is total breach of human rights!

So, enforcing immigration laws without fear, favor or prejudice is a "total breach of human rights?"
