"Mexico Sends Message with Berlin Wall Slab as Biden Bolsters Border Barriers"

Tijuana's mayor installed a 3-ton slab of the Berlin Wall near the US-Mexico border as a symbolic critique of America's immigration policies. The installation, titled "A World Without Walls," serves as a reminder to build bridges instead of barriers. The slab was initially intended for former President Trump but found a new home in Tijuana. The installation stands near a new border wall construction project approved by President Biden, marking a U-turn from his initial executive order to halt construction. The border wall has divided Friendship Park, a symbolic site celebrating US-Mexican relations. Despite the criticism, the mayor emphasized the need for the US and Mexico to work together to address the influx of asylum seekers.
