reporter: these days patricia says people are concerned about more than just basic services. it can be tough because every story, every call is another story. and i can have a call that can be about a passport, but i can also have a call saying that what happened if my kids r us us citizens and they have to go back to mexico. that s why we have people walking here. reporter: ricardo who leads this team noticed a recent 100% increase in call traffic. the center received an average of $700 ca7 700 calls a day befd trump was sworn in, today, 1400. he says many of the calls come from undocumented mexicans with the new fear of dealing with u.s. immigration authorities. they fear deportation. we re trying to refer our
was not predictable. in fact, u.s. intelligence picked up on movements in the past month or so that indicated this could be coming. and yet we get a very, very brief statement from president trump, a bit of a longer one from prime minister abe in this first response to a missile launch. back to you. for more analysis on north korea, let s bring in jim walsh, senior research associate at mit joining us have from cambridge, massachusetts. part of this is set piece theater, you know. we re going to have the japanese prime minister and the south korea temporary president, president trump, all come out and say this is unacceptable and terrible and we ll pursue tougher measures and there will probably be a u.n. resolution at some point. but if we sort of step back from all of that, which is, you know, set theater as they say, what strikes me about it is the north
that s welcome news both in south korea and japan. it is very important as you rightly point out, there is a lot of uncertainty on the ground because of the impeachment, the front-runner at the moment possibly to take over from the embattled president, it is a progressive politician who is already suggested his approach to north korea might involve negotiations in a more moderate approach if you would like, which might conflict quite by the more hard-line approach of president trump. china in this context is as it always has been, in a sense the most critical player. because china has the closest relationship. it is in a position to enforce sanctions if it wants to. so far, however, chinese have always been willing, if you like, very final stage, to roll back some of the sanctions. many people in washington are
