With the surge in immigrants from Central America in the United States and countermeasures becoming a major issue, Vice President Harris, who is in charge of countermeasures under the Biden administration, will visit Central America next month as the first foreign visit after taking office. I made it clear.

In the United States, children aiming to enter the country from Guatemala in Central America are rushing to the border area with Mexico, and immigration measures are urgently needed.



Under these circumstances, Vice President Harris, who is in charge of measures under the Biden administration, told reporters on the 5th that he will visit Mexico and Guatemala in Central America on the 7th and 8th next month.



This is the first time Vice President Harris has visited a foreign country since taking office.



Vice President Harris is expected to discuss concrete cooperation to improve the security and economic conditions of Central American countries, which is behind the rapid increase in immigrants.



Regarding the issue of immigration, there are increasing calls for the Biden administration not only from the opposition and the Republican Party but also from the ruling party and the Democratic Party to take prompt action. It seems that there is also an aim to appeal.
