Trump cautions foreign companies after ICE raid at Hyundai plant

All foreign companies investing in the United States should respect the country’s immigration laws, President Donald Trump advised on Sunday.

The president, in a Truth Social post, enjoined them to bring in smart people with great technical talent lawfully, assuring that the government will make their emigration quickly and legally possible.

“What we ask in return is that you hire and train American workers,” Trump wrote, adding: “Together, we will all work hard to make our Nation not only productive, but closer in unity than ever before.”

The US leader’s statement followed last Thursday’s raid at the Hyundai Motor Group-LG Energy Solution in Georgia by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

More than 470 people — mostly South Korean nationals — illegally working at the battery plant were detained in the largest single-location operation in the Department of Homeland Security’s history.

Speaking to reporters on Sunday, Trump expressed his desire to see experts train Americans on how to build batteries, and also increase their expertise in shipbuilding and computer manufacturing.

“We have a lot of industries that we don’t have anymore, and we’re going to have to train people,” the president said before his trip to New York for the US Open.

Meanwhile, the South Korean government has reached a deal with the U.S. authorities, allowing the government to airlift the detained citizens back home.

Chief of Staff to the President Kang Hoon-sik confirmed ongoing administrative procedures and announced a planned improvement of the visa system to prevent business travelers from similar episodes.

“As soon as the process is completed, a chartered plane will depart to serve our people,” Kang hinted after a council meeting at the Prime Minister’s residence in Seoul.
