WASHINGTON/MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – U.S. President Joe Biden and Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador spoke by phone on Tuesday, both countries said, ahead of a U.S. policy shift that is expected to drive an increase of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Lopez Obrador said on Twitter the two had discussed their commitment to work together on migration, as well as drugs and arms trafficking.
They also discussed “cooperation in caring for the continent’s poorest,” Lopez Obrador added.
