Tuesday the president of USA Donald Trump made a speech about "border wall."

"Every day, customs and border patrol agents encounter thousands of illegal immigrants trying to enter our country. We are out of space to hold them, and we have no way to promptly return them back home to their country."

He describes southern border as a pipeline for illegal products such as drugs and etc.

"Our southern border is a pipeline for vast quantities of illegal drugs, including meth, heroin, cocaine, and fentanyl. Every week, 300 of our citizens are killed by heroin alone, 90% of which floods across from our southern border. More Americans will die from drugs this year than were killed in the entire Vietnam war."

Donald Trump noted the facts of illegal immigration and related criminal cases, then calls the situation as a crisis.

"This is a humanitarian crisis – a crisis of the heart and a crisis of the soul...This is the tragic reality of illegal immigration on our southern border. This is the cycle of human suffering that I am determined to end."

Mr. President touched upon the cost of the wall and the negative effects of not having that.

"The border wall would very quickly pay for itself. The cost of illegal drugs exceeds $500bn a year – vastly more than the $5.7bn we have requested from Congress. The wall will also be paid for, indirectly, by the great new trade deal we have made with Mexico."

Mr. Trump clarified the reason of government shutdown and 

"The federal government remains shut down for one reason and one reason only: because Democrats will not fund border security."

Donald Trump blasted who is against the construction of the wall and gave the explanation.

"Some have suggested a barrier is immoral. Then why do wealthy politicians build walls, fences, and gates around their homes? They don’t build walls because they hate the people on the outside, but because they love the people on the inside. The only thing that is immoral is the politicians to do nothing and continue to allow more innocent people to be so horribly victimized."

He showed the way how the crisis can be solved

"To every member of Congress: pass a bill that ends this crisis. To every citizen: call Congress and tell them to finally, after all of these decades, secure our border."
