“Biden to broaden US-Mexican relations, keep immigration at top.”

Gladys McCormick, associate professor of history in the Maxwell School, was quoted in the Al Jazeera story “Biden to broaden US-Mexican relations, keep immigration at top.” McCormick, an expert on US-Mexico relations, believes that Mexican president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador will likely request more funding from the US than ever before in order to respond to the “crisis” at the  border. “[Lopez Obrador] will have to start stationing more numbers of the National Guard not just at the southern border, but on the northern border too,” McCormick says.
