WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States has agreed to invest in Central America and southern Mexico to promote development and help contain immigration, Mexican Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard said on Thursday, following a leaders' summit in Washington.
Speaking at a news conference after Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, U.S. President Joe Biden and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau held talks, Ebrard said the United States would contribute to a scheme likely called "sembrando oportunidades", or 'planting opportunities'.
