US President Joe Biden (78) has given his Vice President Kamala Harris (56) her first real job, and it’s really tough. Harris is supposed to solve the immigration crisis on the southern border, US media report with reference to anonymous sources in political circles.
It is supposed to administer diplomatic relations with the Central American states of El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, the so-called “Northern Triangle.”
Harris wie Biden
Harris is now testing what Biden has already tested himself. In 2014 and 2015, he was then Vice President Barack Obama (59) in charge of assuming responsibility for diplomatic relations in the three countries. At that time, a large number of young people emigrated from there to the United States without their parents.
“Harris is expected to enter into a strategic partnership with these countries based on shared values and respect,” said a source.
Is the vice president successful?
Harris’s attempts are seen as an effort by the new government to address the root causes of displacement from these areas. In particular, it is violence and poverty that drive many residents, especially minors, of these states to want to migrate to the United States. Until now, Harris hadn’t received such a key assignment from Biden. Instead, she was a kind of “equal partner,” as CNN puts it. She accompanied him on many occasions, especially in the context of the crown crisis.
In recent weeks, pressure on the Biden administration had increased in light of the rapidly increasing number of migrants at the southern border of the United States. The most pressing issue at the moment is the accommodation of the many unaccompanied migrant minors. (vof)
