MEXICO: Mayorkas visits Mexico
Cooperation was the theme of the day when US Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas visited Mexico for a high-level meeting about migration on 14 March. Mexico’s foreign ministry (SRE) stated that both sides agreed on the importance of advancing a regional approach to migration, whereas Mayorkas talked of “shared challenges and opportunities”. This discourse of unity and collaboration differed from the tone that Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel López Obrador had adopted just days earlier, when he said the US needed to do more to address migration during a visit to Mexico’s southern border with Guatemala.
