Jill Biden and Kamala Harris, the impeccable looks for the inauguration ceremony

Kamala Harris’ first official visit abroad has already gone down in history for the spoken words during his speech in Guatemala. The vice president of the United States visited the country and during a press conference held together with President Alejandro Giammattei addressed an appeal to potential illegal migrants from Guatemala and other neighboring countries.

Immigration is a hot topic in this period and much felt: this is how Kamala Harris addressed all the people who would like to leave the countries of Central America to migrate illegally to the United States.

I want to be clear to the people of this region that they are thinking of embarking on that perilous journey to the US-Mexico border: don’t come. You do not come.

Harris added “there are avenues for legal immigration and these are what must be covered “, and motivated the clear opposition to illegal migrations from Central America, arguing that the administration of President Joe Biden”he wants to help Guatemalans find hope in their homeland“.

The government’s intention is therefore not to close the borders, but to help Guatemalans and Mexicans to live peacefully staying at their home, creating better conditions in the countries of origin.

This is why Kamala Harris discouraged migrants from those countries, urging them not to show up at the borders. “The United States will continue to protect borders,” he said, speaking of “most people who don’t want to leave the place they grew up”, but who are often forced to “because they simply can’t meet their basic needs. staying at home “.

According to Harris, the solution to the problem cannot be running away from the homeland, but “working together” to change the system and create more favorable conditions in these countries, heavily oppressed by poverty and crime – without considering the pandemic, which is claiming hundreds of thousands of victims – which are the great problems that favor emigration.

During the press conference with President Alejandro Giammattei, the vice president of the United States announced the formation of a joint task force with the Guatemalan government against corruption in the country, promising financial aid and the sending of half a million doses of vaccine against the coronavirus.
