Today’s former President of the United States, Donald Trump, would have promised to allocate resources for this plan, however, financial support did not arrive.
“What we would like is for the United States to sign part of this effort by Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador and also Mexico.”
“In essence, how can we agree that, in something that we both agree on, we can take effective action in the short and medium term, if we persevere and act together we can get these countries to have another future “, he pointed out.
