U.S. Pledges $170 Million to Guatemala to Keep Migrants at Home

During his Washington visit, Guatemalan President Bernardo Arévalo secured a $170 million pledge from the U.S.

This fund will enhance health, development, and security in Guatemala, aiming to address migration’s root causes.

Arévalo’s discussions with Vice President Kamala Harris and later, President Joe Biden, focused on key issues like migration and anti-corruption efforts.

Biden highlighted the reinforced U.S.-Guatemala partnership in his X post.

Oh please!!  Does anyone believe for one second Guatemala is going to stop anyone from leaving while it rakes in millions?  That means they have fewer people to care for and more money, if it doesn't get to the presidente's bank account first.
