Mexico to contribute $1.5 billion for infrastructure at US southern border

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador visited the White House on Tuesday

Mexico will contribute $1.5 billion toward infrastructure at the southern border to improve processing and security, Fox News Digital has learned -- a commitment that comes as Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador visited the White House.

Lopez Obrador is visiting Washington D.C., where he met with President Biden in a bilateral meeting. A source familiar with the talks said that the $1.5 billion had been committed by Mexico.

It comes as part of a bilateral meeting arranged after Lopez Obrador skipped the Summit of the Americas in June after disagreement over which nations were invited.

Biden gets 1.5 billion, and for something that will help, not for a stupid wall.
