President Joe Biden and Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador had a “constructive” talk about efforts to stem the flow of migrants to the southern U.S. border, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said.
“The tone of the call was very constructive,” Psaki told reporters Friday following the virtual meeting, which lasted about an hour. “They have been an important partner, and we expect them to continue to be.”
