Kristi Noem says that the United States is open to business after leaving a Hyundai raid which has arrested hundreds of South Korean immigrants

The detention of 475 workers, more than 300, in the South Korean during the September 4 raid, caused confusion, shock and a feeling of betrayal among many members of the US Allied nation.

“This is an excellent opportunity for us to make sure that all the companies are reassured that when you arrive in the United States, you will know what the rules of the game are,” said Noem at a meeting in London of the ministers of the intelligence partner of the “five eyes” focused on border security.

“We encourage all the companies who wish to come to the United States and help our economy and employ people, that we encourage them to employ American citizens and bring people in our country who want to follow our laws and work here in the right way,” she told journalists.

The Koreans detained would be expelled after most of them were detained for ignoring the dismissal orders, while “a few” were engaged in other criminal activities and “will face the consequences,” said Noem.

The new British Interior Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, welcomed Noem and the ministers of Canada, Australia and New Zealand to an 18th century army headquarters for discussions on the fight against unauthorized migration, sexual abuse on children and the spread of opioids.

Mahmood, who was placed in the post of Minister of the Interior during a reshuffle of Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Friday, said the ministers “would suit new measures to protect our borders with our five eyes partners, hitting people hard.”

The distant countries are close allies with certain common problems but also differ widely in their approaches to migration. The Trump administration’s street raid program, mass detentions and large -scale deportations of unauthorized migrants have aroused national and international criticism and a host of legal challenges.

Noem said there had been no disagreements among the ministers of talks to the sharing of information on criminal gangs, the use of technology to disrupt their networks and accelerate extradition arrangements.

“I don’t think the discussion today has covered politics,” she said. “What resources do we have that we can share so that we can better protect our countries?”

Noem said that “when we put in place difficult measures, the more we can talk about it and share it, it is an inspiration for other countries to do the same.”

She denied a plan to extend the immigration raids and deploy the National Guard to Chicago, who met with the opposition of the local and state authorities, was pending.

“Nothing is pending. Everything is at full speed,” said Noem to journalists, saying “we can manage as many operations every day as we owe, to ensure the safety of America.”

The British center-left work government is struggling to lower the number of migrants crossing the Channel in small boats, so far 30,000 this year. He faces calls for opposition parties to leave the European Convention on Human Rights in order to take more difficult measures.

The government says it will not, but can change the interpretation of the British law convention. He concluded an agreement with France to return certain migrants who cross the chain and work on similar agreements with other countries.
