Mexican President Claudia Shinbom On Friday, the United States urged officials to refrain from targeting the individuals who attended the football match in the Gold Cup on Saturday in Los Angeles between Mexico and the Dominican Republic.
Her comments come amid the growing migration in southern California, where the federal authorities detained more than 100 individuals in the last raids in the Los Angeles fashion area and in parking lots in Home Depot.
“We don’t think there will be any raids if there is a football game,” Shinbom said at a press conference. “We hope that there is nothing. We do not call for any procedure for enforcement of American migration and customs.”
The match is scheduled to take place on Saturday night at the Sophie in Inglood as part of the Gold Cup group stage. The national team in Mexico attracts large crowds in southern California, another match in the region, which is the semi -finals of the Nations League against Canada in March, which brought more than 50,000 fans.
In response to the recent increase in enforcement, the president Donald Trump The National Guard and Marine Corps in the Los Angeles area were deployed, days after the turmoil ignited by the raids. The protests ranged from peaceful demonstrations to more sabotage actions, including blocking the main highway and burning vehicles during the weekend.

“This campaign we are doing through consulates will provide all information about what to do if it is arrested, as well as continuous contact with families,” Shinbom said.
