Mexican officials are comparing the U.S. border wall to the Berlin Wall that Soviets used to divide Germany, placing a piece just feet away from San Diego.
This week on ‘Fox News Sunday,’ Shannon Bream welcomes former Vice President Mike Pence, Biden economic adviser Jared Bernstein, and more to discuss this week’s top political headlines.
The Mexican government placed a piece of the Berlin Wall just a stone's throw from the U.S.-Mexico border in Tijuana, sending a clear message to border-security advocates in the U.S. Tijuana Mayor Montserrat Caballero and former Mexican foreign secretary Marcelo Ebrard installed the shard of the Soviet wall during a ceremony last month. A plaque near its base, written by Caballero, reads,"May this be a lesson to build a society that knocks down walls and builds bridges."across the nearly 2,000 miles of territory dividing the U.S. and Mexico. Unlike the U.S.
"Why in Tijuana? How many families have shed blood, labor and their lives to get past the wall?" Caballero asked."The social and political conflict is different than the Berlin Wall, but it’s a wall at the end of the day. And a wall is always a sphinx that divides and bloodies nations."A family pushes a snack cart past a slab of the Berlin Wall, displayed near the border wall that separates the United States from Mexico, in Tijuana, Mexico.
