Mexico says it will use its national guard at its southern border with Guatemala as part of the country’s bid to curb Central American migration.
“We have explained that there are 6,000 men and that they will be deployed there,” Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard told reporters in televised remarks as he left a meeting with U.S. officials in Washington.
Ebrard added that Mexico’s talks with the United States about migration will continue on Friday. Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on Mexican imports starting next week if Mexico does not do more to contain the migrant flows.
