From Reuters:
WASHINGTON, July 12 (Reuters) - Mexico on Tuesday pledged to spend $1.5 billion to beef up its northern border as its leader met with U.S. President Joe Biden, who faces attacks from Republicans over his handling of immigration on the United States' southern flank.
Casting immigration as a "hemispheric challenge", Biden met Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador and top Mexican officials in the White House to address U.S. concerns over migration and Mexico's desire for more worker visas.
In a joint statement, the two governments vowed to take "immediate and coordinated steps to manage the flows of migrants arriving into our countries" and to tackle soaring inflation by boosting bilateral trade and reducing trade costs.

Remember how TFG constantly said he would get Mexico to pay for the “wall”? That never happened, not even slightly, thank goodness. Under TFG, US-Mexico relations were strained, to say the least. But with President Biden at the helm, Mexico has now agreed to partner with us to address immigration issues in a non-fascist manner.
It’s just gravy that this is also a glorious F.U. to TFG.
