MEXICO CITY (BNO NEWS) — Mexico on Tuesday issued a warning for its citizens about travel to Arizona because of the new immigration law.

Mexico’s Foreign Ministry said that “there is an adverse political environment for migrant communities and for all Mexican visitors.”

Mexican citizens should “act with prudence and respect the local legal framework,” the message said.

Foreigners who do not carry immigration documents may be arrested and sent to immigration detention centers. Mexicans “should assume that every Mexican citizen may be harassed and questioned without further cause at any time.”
