Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador met this week with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Mexico City to develop a new strategy on how to hamper the unprecedented levels of migrant flow pouring through Mexico and the United States.
The transnational cooperative meeting came as Republicans continue to levy pressure on the Biden administration to take control of the southwest border, which has seen unprecedented numbers of illegal border crossers since the 46th president was sworn into power.
U.S. officials said last week that an estimated 10,000 number of migrants were unlawfully crossing the border every day.
