Mexico's top immigration official said Monday the country will not order the militarization of the border with Guatemala as caravans of residents from Central American countries make their way north.
Interior Secretary Olga Sánchez Cordero said Mexico will regulate and provide security to migrants from Central America, El Universal newspaper reported.
She added that President Andrés Manuel López Obrador's government is "not repressive" and won't militarize its southern border "under any circumstances."
Sánchez Cordero's comments follow López Obrador's vow to respond with "peace and love" to U.S. threats to close the U.S.-Mexico border.
President Trump vowed in recent days to shut down the southern border -- the world's busiest commercial frontier --

The border needs to be closed tomorrow. Make Mexico understand he means it as well as can. The sooner that happens the more likely we are to stop them.
That's outrageous! It should be 100%.
He’s betting the US Chamber of Commerce and the Republican party will bail them out.
And it’s likely.
Story goes that back in the early fifties, there was a belief that orbiting a spacecraft over a sovereign country would be taboo. Then the Russians did it, relieving the U.S. of having to break that tradition.
Fast forward to 2019: Mexico dumps migrants over the border into the U.S., relieving the U.S. of breaking that tradition — we can now freely dump whomever we want over the Mexican border, and we are free and clear!
I see a bunch of giant sliding boards like you might see at a big water park, with thousands of illegals sliding across in to Mexico — it would be beautiful.
Close it down and stop all banking transactions going South. About a week at most and Mexico will take action.
The word is out. Show up at the border and Trump will let you in and let you stay.
Trump won’t do that, he already said he’d never resort to shooting border crossers.
He is surrounded by rotten haters of this country, especially his daughter and her idiot husband. He won’t close the border.
Went don’t we just spread dysentery to the caravan?
you, good idea: ban all these wire transfers of money.
AND CLOUSE the BORDER
“...Kick Mexico’s ambassador out of the country and close their Embassy... “
some goes to all Mexican Consulates here, also.
Then those caravans should be met at OUR border with tear gas, bayonets, and rubber bullets... and SHOVE their asses back into Mexico.
And if Mexican troops interfere, then use real bullets.
ENOUGH of this crap.
But, but, we’ll only have 20 days worth of avocados if the border is closed; our economy will grind to a halt if such a thing were to come to pass, least so it seems watching the news stations in other areas...
Wrong Answer.
Hes seen whats going on here. Politicians facilitating the invasion. Judges writing laws to facilitate the invasion. He also knows that even if Trump shuts down the border therell be such an uproar here that it wont hold. Hes playing the cards he has and hes seen all ours. Ours arent good and he knows it.
Id rub our faces in it too. Were weak.
Invade Mexico, arrest its leaders and try them as terrorists at GITMO!
SHUT IT DOWN, we will be fine without their produce BUT they wont be fine without our money!!! Shut the DAMN THING DOWN NOW!!!
These wire transfers are a HUGE thing to Mexico Trump needs to jump on this they WILL be waving a white flag in no time!!! We can live without their fecal infected produce!!!
It’s getting scary no one is doing anything. The media is silent. The border is deadly.
