When a US citizen is arrested, who picks up their kids from school. What about their trauma? You were in limbo the moment you decided to leave your country to break into the US. So cry, but those tears don't water any flowers. Mexico can have them and then they will understand the financial burden on our citizens. They are criminals because they broke numerous countries laws and these countries are a sovereign nation like the US. Trump works for US citizens and when he stops doing the will of the people that voted him into office, we will get him removed just like Biden and Harris. We have had enough!!

“Migration regime” ? We have millions of undocumented people in our country that once in, will never leave. We have every right to secure our borders and decide who comes in and who doesn’t.

Want to enter the US? Easy, get a passport before you leave your country. If you want to move and work, apply for an employment visa before you leave your country. Didn't plan ahead, your problem.

One might think that the countries loosing millions of their doctors, lawyers & astronauts to migration would be complaining that their best and brightest are leaving their home countries, but strangely it seems like things are only improving in south and central America. It's so very strange....

Left bias media. The American are thrilled with all trump decisions. They voted for these policies. Interfere in your own country s affair leave USA alone..

If I were a president of a country, I would look at WHY my citizens want to leave the country and fix it.

Why to leave your own country?

i need to leave the united states and I'm all open for integrating in another country and contributing to the economy.

Mexico’s Economic Apocalypse: My Personal Analysis\n\nThe imposition of a 25% tariff on all Mexican imports by the United States would be nothing short of an economic death sentence for Mexico. As someone deeply concerned about the integrity of U.S. borders, sovereignty, and the well-being of American citizens, I believe this tariff is both justified and necessary. Mexico has repeatedly ignored its responsibilities as a neighbor, and it is time for accountability. Let’s examine the devastating impact this tariff would have on Mexico in brutal, undeniable detail.\n\n\n---\n\nEconomic Collapse: A Nation on Its Knees\n\nMexico’s economy relies heavily on exports, with over 80% of its exports destined for the United States. A 25% tariff would obliterate Mexico’s competitive edge, pricing its goods out of the U.S. market. The result? A $100 billion annual loss in trade revenue—a wound so deep it would cripple the nation’s economy beyond repair.\n\nGDP Freefall: With exports constituting 28% of Mexico’s GDP, the tariff would slash growth rates and plunge Mexico into a severe recession. Entire industries would collapse under the weight of unsold goods and lost revenue streams.\n\nMassive Manufacturing Shutdowns: Mexico’s lifeblood industries—automotive, electronics, and steel—would face annihilation. Plants dependent on U.S. buyers would grind to a halt, leaving millions unemployed.\n\n\n\n---\n\nSocial and Humanitarian Crisis: A Nation in Chaos\n\nThe economic fallout wouldn’t just affect industries—it would decimate millions of lives:\n\nUnemployment Epidemic: With factories shuttered and exports decimated, unemployment would skyrocket, leaving millions of families destitute. Entire regions reliant on U.S. trade would become economic wastelands.\n\nHuman Desperation: Widespread poverty would fuel desperation, leading to a surge in crime, social unrest, and violence. Mexico’s already fragile social fabric would unravel, plunging the nation into chaos.\n\nMass Emigration: Unable to survive in their homeland, millions of Mexicans would flee to the United States, creating an unprecedented border crisis—ironically the very issue the tariff seeks to address.\n\n\n\n---\n\nFinancial Ruin: Mexico’s Peso in Freefall\n\nThe peso would face catastrophic devaluation, losing value faster than at any point in modern history. This would create:\n\nHyperinflation: Everyday goods would become unaffordable for the average citizen. The price of imported essentials—like medicine and machinery—would skyrocket.\n\nInvestor Exodus: Foreign investors, seeing no future for Mexico’s economy, would abandon the country. Capital flight would cause Mexico’s stock market to crash, sending shockwaves through the financial system.\n\n\n\n---\n\nThe Root Cause: Mexico’s Negligence\n\nMexico has brought this apocalypse upon itself through years of neglect and willful inaction:\n\nIllegal Immigration: Mexico has consistently allowed massive waves of illegal immigrants to flow across its northern border, destabilizing U.S. communities and eroding American sovereignty.\n\nDrug Trafficking: The unchecked trafficking of fentanyl and other deadly drugs through Mexican cartels has killed tens of thousands of Americans annually. Mexico has done little to combat this epidemic, allowing cartels to thrive.\n\nBroken Promises: Despite agreements and warnings, Mexico has failed to step up as a responsible partner. Words without action are meaningless, and the time for talk is over.\n\n\n\n---\n\nWhy Trump’s 25% Tariff is Justified\n\nPresident Trump’s 25% tariff isn’t just an economic tool—it’s a weapon of justice aimed at holding Mexico accountable for its negligence. Here’s why this move is essential:\n\n1. Securing U.S. Borders: Mexico’s failure to stop illegal immigration has forced the United States to act decisively. This tariff will compel Mexico to finally enforce its borders and prevent illegal crossings.\n\n\n2. Protecting American Lives: The flow of drugs like fentanyl must stop. By crippling Mexico’s economy, the tariff weakens the cartels that profit from this deadly trade.\n\n\n3. Economic Leverage: The U.S. is Mexico’s largest trading partner. Without access to the American market, Mexico’s economy collapses. This leverage ensures Mexico has no choice but to comply with U.S. demands.\n\n\n\n\n---\n\nA Brutal but Necessary Move\n\nYes, this tariff would cause unimaginable suffering in Mexico, but that suffering is a direct result of its government’s failures. President Trump is not to blame—Mexico is. By ignoring its responsibilities, Mexico has forced America to take a stand. The economic apocalypse that follows is the price Mexico must pay for its negligence.\n\nThis is not just about punishing Mexico—it’s about protecting the United States. It’s about securing our borders, saving American lives, and ensuring that the U.S. economy is not undermined by a neighbor that refuses to act responsibly. In the end, the 25% tariff is a painful but unavoidable reckoning for a nation that has long shirked its duties. The survival of Mexico’s economy depends entirely on its willingness to change course—and fast.

India is the 5th largest economies, yet why would people want to move to other countries to seek for a better life? Nothing like your home country my friends, stay there and enjoy the true life. Make your country a true great nation so that you never have to leave to another country.

If you leave Canada, you'll become an immigrant in another country ? interesting

What Govt needs to do now is actively find solution for issues in the country. Why are ppl leaving the country. You have resource and massively educated young crowd, multiple billionaires and many many millionaires so whats wrong?

God Modi is working hard to make trillion dollar economy with first class roads , free healthcare and education and these people want to leave or visit other countries

Every single country have more than 100000 Indian why you guys just want to leave your country and you have so much ppl

It’s not western policies. It’s Indian behaviors. If you are so prod then why don’t you stay in India? Why are they all trying to leave? Countries have learned a lesson. You let in one Indian and tomorrow there two hundred thousand knocking at your door, and bringing with them backward traditions such as caste system.

There’s more pride and nationalism projected in this video than real facts. Why do Indians need visas? It’s very simple: Most Indians are more likely to figure out a way to stay abroad once they touchdown abroad. \n\nAmericans, Canadians, Europeans, etc, don’t need visas wherever they go because most of them always return to their countries eventually no matter where they visit and how long they’re away. \n\nCitizens who don’t need visas wherever they go hardly ever leave their own countries for another. It’s really very simple. Just look at Singapore, Switzerland, etc. How often do you see their citizens leave such countries for another? Almost never. That’s why.\n\nIt sounds like she’s trying to make an argument that this rule shouldn’t apply to Indians because India’s economy is powerful. You need to convince this fact to the Indians who are leaving India, because if you can’t even sell this point to those Indians leaving India, then you don’t even have a case.

Why people leaving the country we are almost surpassing USA as super power ❤

The question that I have is why so many Indians are soooo desperate to leave India. Maybe you should focus your anger on India's corrupt political class for impoverishing India, rather than other nations for rejecting Indian visas? Other countries (like America) are struggling too, and simply can't afford to keep importing cheap labor from India :(

2 billion people leaving there country

Easy they are scammers, nothing genuine with fake diplomas and certificates only do is some doggy jobs and make money without doing the rightful purpose of the visa no offence but I believe indians shouldn't leave there country

shame on you ! putting dust in the public eyes is far more dangerous than harming a person. Why First post have fear @Palki Sharma to show Indian real face? Put your camera down in any country, Name it : Germany, Italy, America , Canada, Australia, Newzeland, Hungary , Amsterdam, UK, Scotland. Palki sharma jist name it and put your camera on ground and do the survey. You will feel Indians are world 3rd country Parasites in these countries. Why Indians fail to show respect and basic hygiene when they are in abroad? Specially Punjabis ! Have you smell them ? Not taking bath and roaming on the streets with bad odour leaves permanent mark on other Indians reputation.(by the way i am from amritsar and a punjabi). NOW WORLD IS KNOWING :- Indians believes that they cannot benefit unless someone else is harmed. This is Indian culture at its core and white people are also knowing this. If India is that great then why Indians are leaving ? If your culture is that superior then why you want to go to other country ? Enjoy your superiority. Accept the reality . TRUTH IS BITTER

Palki: your program shows only part of the story. \n\nIndians are one of the most visible visa violators. You should know that in the US, we have 700,000 illegal immigrants, which includes people who are overstaying their given visa duration. \n\nOver 15% of the Indian population in the US are illegal aliens. \n\nBy giving such incomplete picture of the issue, you are only losing your credibility outside India as a Angrezi Indian TV program \n\nYou should do a series of programs on why Indians, in the middle of such promising growth, are so desperately wanting to leave India to Angrezi-speaking Gora countries. \n\nYou should dig a little deep into the issue. \n\nUK and France are under the grip of their social fabric being torn apart because of their own past errors and sins as empires. \n\nBelgium and Holland are already changed demographically with legal and illegal immigrants. \n\nCanada, Australia and NZ are threatened by Indian immigrants who have entered their counties under the guise of students. The populations of these countries are smaller than Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata metro populations. \n\nKollengode S Venkataraman

Really want to leave Canada now. It isn't the country I've lived in all my life. It is going to get much worse now the Alt right are here. Hoping I can leave before Pierre gets in.

True! West won't answer your question but You too are hiding significant details in this video. Also true, West relies in Indian talent however that does not mean the talented ppl should be above the social construct. In US DFW airport as soon as you exit the airport premises you will start smelling awful odor, walk few steps ahead you will see the reason, all the poles are covered with a grainy red paint like stuff, which as a proud Indian, you would definitely know what it is. Its not like the administration don't clean the place, however, it is still in that condition. This is just 1 of many reason why Indians are being looked at as nuisance these days. Also, what is with Indian mindset to turn everyplace into India, yes culture, tradition and diversity should be welcomed, accepted, and tolerated but if your behavior borderlines with colonizing then, things will head south very fast and that is what most of the Indians do. And finally, what is with Indian behavior, if they are treated with respect they misunderstand it with being submissive and try to dominate the people that are being respectful until they are shown their place and if they are misbehaved then they act as if they are being discriminated. So as a media person, it would be a good thing if you publish a video telling Indians to learn ethics, learn social sentiment, learn proper behavior, and most of all learn to quit back-stabbing behavior before they leave for other countries and I believe in a decade or two these misfortunate events will slowly start to decline.

UAE started rejecting visas because many indians dont leave the country before their visa expires and many of them dont carry enough funds for their stay in the country. Many expats ‘work’ on tourist visas too.

Repeatedly mentikning India's growth won't make it a developed country. Accepting the flaws, and taking the blame, will.\nMost Indians who travel abroad leave a negative impression. It is something that cannot be denied.\nDid this channel report the fraud in the name of charity by Indians working at Apple USA?\nYou can't always blame others and look for convenience with 1.5 bn people.

First, let’s admit the truth—why do Indians rush to Western countries? Not because they’re just “visiting.” They’re chasing jobs or education. And guess what? They don’t reject those wealthy Indian passports when it’s time to leave! ? Many Indians dream of a Western lifestyle, but here comes the plot twist: the current Indian government is playing a double game, crushing those dreams like an overripe mango. ?\n\nNow, poor Palki is out here screaming about Western policies, but honestly, it’s all noise with no sense. The Western world doesn’t revolve around India, sorry, baby. ?✨ Check your foreign policy before making grand speeches—it’s giving “wannabe boss energy.” ?

Stop immigrating \nModi - worth 100bn\nMittal - worth 100bn\nAmbani - 150bn\nAdani - 100bn\n\nAnd the list goes on…. Now work out whose worth 50bn, 20bn, 5bn.\n\nImagine that money was not sucked out of India and placed in Swiss bank accounts and Mayfair London properties but back in India.\n\nYou will never need to leave India and can enjoy your country, friends, family and culture for the rest of your lives

let me tell you a real incident \nthere was country name persia where parsi people lives and once they give shelter to muslim refurgee \nnow today there is no parsi people and that country become iran \nand all parsi had to leave their own land and took shelter in India\n\nif you think that story is fake search yourself iran history

It's easy to understand this. Indians love to leave their country behind and settle in New land. They bring with them some behaviors that are eye brow raising. Coupled with the sheer number of people that come from India, it feels like an infestation.

Palki what do you want all Indian move to abroad and tell other nations to leave their countries ?

A lot of Indians want to leave India. That's why other countries need to be stricter

Everyone writes in their signed statement during visa that they will leave the country after study. So leave??

Firstly, we need find out why so many Indians are leaving the country? that now one analyses

Excellent. Stay in this country and build it into a nation that is not worth leaving.

Most people in jails of Saudia, Dubai, Oman and Qatar are also Indians.\nMost illegal immigrant people living after visa expiry in USA & Canada are Indians. Indians dont leave the country after visa expiry.\nIndians are crying is jails of Saudia and Middle East.\nIndian government is doing nothing, government doesn't care.

I have travelled to almost 40 countries and have never been rejected for any visa - US, UK, Schengen etc. Reason being, I am a law abiding traveller who respects the rules & regulations of the countries I travel to. I furnish all documents honestly at the visa center. I arrive & leave the foreign countries as permitted on my visa. Traveler's with a clean & honest travel history should have no problems at all.

Imdians are desperate to leave india, and most illegal immigrantion comes from india and Pakistan, these are s hole countries that have the poorest standard of living - cant blame for this.

Why do so many Indians want to leave? You have had 70 years of independence, you have had plenty of time to build up your own country.

all this harangues.....is tedious. why are you rooting for visas? since the 80s, i have seen any and every indian that was barely intelligent enough to be productive in the rest of the world leave the country....except one or two, whole batches of classes from our graduation, masters classes have left....and these were ppl who benefitted from the almost free higher education given the indian state...so, stop rooting for visas, s if it is a good thing for out country..unless ppl are travelling to conduct some business activities abroad, every visa obtained means one loss for india....

Indians need to drop certain behaviors when they leave India and learn how to behave in the west. Maybe then, some countries may reconsider their visa formalities. I’m predicting that SE Asian countries are going to soon remove visa on arrival status for Indians because of their tactless behavior exhibited for all to see.

Dear Palki and Firstpost channel, I appreciate this post but maybe if possible could you pls make a post/report on why some Indians are desperate to leave and most importantly the behaviour of some of our countrymen in foreign lands which gives a bad repute and leaves a bitter taste about our country in foreign lands? Shouldn't these ppl be held accountable too, especially when they are fortunate enough to have the means to visit foreign lands? I have seen first hand the way some of our ppl behave and try to twist and manipulate everything to their benefit, lacking basic respect.

Why are indians desperate to leave their country?

Paradox :- the more desperate you are to leave your own country, worse Passport you will have.

If we have to fend for ourselves we can! The rich want to go abroad to work leaving the native country poor.?

You need to explore the fraudulent ones too and not just blame other country's visa process which is the same for people from non-indian origins. The actual issue is much more complex. More foreign workers can destabilize and harm their own people's opportunities as well. May be we should explore why indians are trying to leave india so badly and address those problems first.

Illegal immigration. Majority of indians once they reached the western countries, they dont leave and become illegals. (And yet this reporter badmouth america whenever she can?) I dont see other countries going to india and becoming illegals? Arrogance is another issue.

Palki you are not looking at the really core issue instead you are blaming other countries or governments. Don't be biased because of Indians. Look at why they are being rejected. Lot of Indians do not leave even the visa expires and illegal entry. Every country has a right to protect their country and people from outsiders.\n\nMost of the time Palki views are very biased. Please see Fareed Zakaria show once. He always gives unbiased opinion for an issue/problem/circumstances unlike you.

Why Indians want to leave india for smaller countries and arab and EU countries, when their own country is mahaan world economy ?

Why r more nd more Indians leaving the country... massive failure of government to retain talent/generate employment
