White House: Kamala Harris to Focus on ‘Improving’ Guatemala, Not the Border CrisisCharlie Spiering 26 Apr 2021
Vice President Kamala Harris remains focused on improving living conditions in Central American countries, the White House said, not on the migrant border crisis on the southern border of the United States.
“Vice President Harris’s direct engagement is a testament to the importance we are placing on improving conditions in Guatemala,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Monday ahead of a virtual meeting with the president of Guatemala.
Psaki spoke about Harris’s role in handling the border crisis during the White House press briefing Monday.
Republicans repeatedly question Harris why she refuses to visit the border and publicly acknowledge the migrant crisis that began after she and President Joe Biden took office.
“I would tell you also that her focus is not on the border, it’s on addressing the root causes in the Northern Triangle,” Psaki said.
