President Trump said there was no need for a summit with the Presidents of Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador because 'they understand' the implications of his recent move to cut stabilizing aid to the Central American countries
President Donald Trump said Friday that there was no need for a summit with the Presidents of Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador because"they understand" the implications of his recent move to cut stabilizing aid to the Central American countries.
Trump's dismissal of a summit comes in light of a recent uptick in Mexico's apprehensions of migrants at its southern border, shared with Central America. It remains unclear whether the increase was spurred by Trump's threat to shut down the US-Mexico border if Mexico didn't stop migrants from illegally crossing the US border or simply from greater immigration traffic.
