Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez-Obrador (AMLO) is not wrong on this one. AMLO is calling out Joe Biden for sending $33 billion more to Ukraine, while doing nothing financially in central America which would alleviate the migration pressure.
The article, as written, and general tone from President Lopez-Obrador, are expressed from the perspective that Biden has his foreign policy problem solving emphasis on the wrong syllable.
Put that level of subsidy into support within Central America and the migration issue would correct. Unfortunately, as more people are becoming aware, the location of Biden’s financial emphasis is a feature of the White House plans, not a foreign policy flaw.
Ukraine is viewed as a priority because the DC politicians and corporations gain financial benefit from Ukraine spending. If Biden were to drop $30 billion in central America, it would impede the White House agenda to keep the southern border crisis going. The border collapse is a goal of the White House, not a mistake.
