In the wake of President Donald Trump's directive to deploy National Guard troops to the US-Mexico border, senators in Mexico are calling on their government to retaliate by cutting off cooperation on security and immigration issues.
In a nonbinding resolution approved unanimously on Wednesday, senators said they condemned Trump's "baseless and offensive comments about Mexico and Mexicans and demand the treatment that the relationship between neighbors, partners, and allies requires."
Lawmakers rejected "categorically the intention of President Donald Trump to militarize the border with Mexico and consider such action one insult more."
They urged Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto "to suspend the bilateral cooperation with the United States of America on matters of migration and the fight against transnational organized crime as long as President Donald Trump does not conduct himself with the civility and the respect that the people of Mexico deserve."
The motion also called on the US Congress to urge Trump "to direct relations with Mexico on the basis of respect and mutual collaboration" to confront shared challenges and foster prosperity and development.

so we should hide? Build the wall, these folks are not americans
Shut it down. Close the border completely, allow no flights from Mexico, no trucks, cars boats nothing
Cut off remittances and expel every last Mexican national.
Mexico, Close the border, PLEASE!!! PLEASE close the border!!!
Mexico is at war with the USA.
Has been for decades, with rivers of illegals, and tons of drugs.
Time for America to strike back.
We don’t need Mexico. At all.
Mutual collaboration ? Sure, take all your border hoppers back and keep them there.
For that to be a good threat, they would have to be currently cooperating.
Well, you can't say they lack balls. /s
TRANSLATION: We will let unregulated evil happen to you because it is not in our national interest for you to live secure.
Damn. There goes my stock on leaf blowers...
Mexicans should stay in Mexico. After all, that is where they’re documented.
And ban travel by American citizens to Mexico. Let their tourism industry choke. Bet that will give them pause to stop messing with the US.
Got it. Mexico is going to send its troops to the northern border and tell Americans not to come into Mexico. Keep your greenbacks in America. I got a seester but she’s not for sale. What? Twenty American dollars...hmmmm. Here’s my cel number.
Call me an extremist, but I say cut off diplomatic relations and all trade with Mexico. They offer nothing of value, they flood our nation with drugs and their criminal element. Lets pull out of NAFTA, cut off all ties, require every Mexican national to leave the country and quarantine the border and put Mexico on the no fly list.
Mexico is a Narco Terrorist swamp. Drug Cartels run the government. Mexico is also racist, blacks are always treated badly. We should say it straight the Border is a major source of USA problems.
Put a question on the national ballot on the wall, I dare them to do it and let the USA citizens vote on funding directly.
I want to see the military get even for Marine Sgt. Tommarrisi’s treatment in Mexico jail.
Just let the Marines take a 10 mile DMZ buffer zone inside Mexico where we have problems.
It’s like Palestinians Lite. Similar aggressive, entitled victimhood.
