Biden's Border Wall Reversal Raises Questions and Concerns

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador stated that the US government does not want to build new sections of the border wall on the US-Mexico border, casting doubt on the planned construction. This comes after the Biden administration announced its intention to continue building sections of the wall, a policy initiated by the Trump administration. President Biden clarified that the funds allocated for the construction were appropriated by Congress and he cannot redirect the money. The Mexican delegation expressed their belief that additional border wall construction is not the solution to the migration problem and emphasized the importance of addressing the root causes.
