Mexico said it wants to see more U.S. action on extraditions and weapons trafficking at security meetings scheduled for October 8 with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
Mexico’s top diplomat said October 5 he wants to see faster extraditions of suspects from the United States and fewer guns coming across the border.
“It is important that you, United States, take effective, efficient actions to drastically reduce the illegal trafficking of weapons,” said Foreign Relations Secretary Marcelo Ebrard.
In 2021, five women from Mayithara, four of them MGNREGA (Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act) workers, found a common ground in their desire to create a sustainable livelihood by growing vegetables. Rajamma M., Mary Varkey, Valsala L., Elisho S., and Praseeda Sumesh, aged between 70 and 39, pooled their savings, rented a piece of land and began their collective vegetable farming journey under the Deepam Krishi group.
