We have seen that national security and environmental conservation are mutually supporting goals.
From day one, there should have been a great sense of urgency in addressing the crisis of a broken border and the migration crisis that we are seeing.
They have to be dismantled. We have to do this work together with the Mexican government.
I think the partnership that we can build between the leaders of both countries targeting the root causes of migration, and working together on issues of border security are all great opportunities in front of us.
