Mexico, 15 dic (EFE).- The undocumented Mexican immigrant Elvira Arellano, who was deported to Mexico this year, affirmed today to Efe that she would return again to United States if she does not find in this country a stable job.

"I do not regret what I lived (in the United States), but up till now I am trying to redo my life in Mexico and I expect that all will turn out well and that I won't have to pass more difficult economic situations that will force me to do the same thing", the activist said.

"Until now I expect to remain here, but further on, I don't now", Arellano said in an interview with Efe.

Arellano, that said that she is adapting to live in a spot in her parents' house, in the town of MaravatÃ*o, of the state of Michoacán, so that she can live with her son, nevertheless, Saúl has had a hard time adapting to this new way of life.

"The way to live in Mexico is very different to that of United States, ever there although on lives modestly and has the necessary things", she affirmed.

She explained that in Maravatio her son bathes with a cup in a tub and "at times he is depressed and he feels sad, therefore he feels he is being punished because here he does not have some things like a sofa he had since he was a small child, and a small television".



"Saulito continues being part of a very important fight, he knows that it hasn't ended with the deportation of his mother, and neither with the fact that they have sent him as an American citizen to a country that is not his", the activist said.



The activist regretted that the Government of Mexico have not given her till this day, an answer on her petition to obtain a diplomatic visa to return to United States with the intention to give her testimony of what occurred, but also in solidarity of other people that suffer just like she has, who are separated from their family, and are treated like criminals or terrorists.

"It is important not to forget the situation regarding the way they are being attacked (the undocumented) with all that hatred and racism, and the most important is that our Government can make an important decision to defend those attacks", she stated.
