THE Arizona will demolish the massive container wall along the border with Mexico, a week after the US government went to court arguing that the makeshift barrier, which was supposed to would prevent the entry of immigrantswas illegally constructed on federal lands.
The state will remove shipping containers, the equipment and vehicles used for the “building” of the wall in early January, based on the agreement reached with federal authorities on Wednesday. The two sides thus end his legal disputeIt was two weeks before Arizona’s new governor, Democrat Katie Hobbs, who had opposed the wall, took office.
Republican Gov. Doug Dassey signed an executive order in August ordering a state agency to close gaps in the border wall with the Mexico600 km long, stacking containers on top of each other. In its lawsuit, the Justice Department argued that the containers were on federal land and therefore the wall was illegal.
However, this wall did not seem like a good idea from the beginning: on the uneven ground the containers could not fit together, leaving passages through which a man could easily pass. In a video that went viral online, a man showed how easy it was to climb, with his bare hands, into two containers, placed on top of each other.
