US Vice President to Visit Mexico, Guatemala
Voice of America
WASHINGTON - Vice President Kamala Harris said Wednesday that she intended to visit Mexico and Guatemala soon as part of her plan to use diplomatic efforts to slow migration to the U.S.-Mexican border.
President Joe Biden, who has moved away from his predecessor Donald Trump's hardline immigration approach, gave Harris the job of leading U.S. efforts with Mexico and Central America's Northern Triangle countries — Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala — to prevent migrants from crossing into the United States. Harris spoke to reporters while participating in a virtual roundtable with experts who offered recommendations on the region, focusing on the core causes of migration in the Northern Triangle.
