AMLO accuses Biden, says new border wall is "pure publicity"

The latest episode in the ongoing comedic series based on Joe Biden’s series of reversals in his attitude toward Donald Trump’s border wall comes to us from south of the border and a person who is directly impacted by these decisions. Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO) decided to weigh in on the situation and spiced up his comments with some inside information about private conversations he had with people from the Biden administration. Assuming he’s laying all of his cards on the table, AMLO isn’t buying it. He doesn’t believe that Biden and his team really want to build any more sections of the wall and doesn’t think it’s even going to happen. (He may be right about that, but more on that in a moment.) He called the idea “pure publicity” and suggested that he may have gotten his information during meetings with American administration officials including Antony Blinken. (NY Post)
The U.S. government does not want to build new sections of wall on its border with Mexico, Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said on Friday, expressing doubt that the planned construction would be carried out.
“It’s pure publicity,” Lopez Obrador said in a regular morning press conference after the Biden administration announced it would build additional sections of border wall, carrying forward a signature policy of the Trump administration.
A high-ranking delegation of U.S. officials met Thursday with their Mexican counterparts, among them U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
