Biden’s Other Mexico Problem – WSJ

Secretary of State Antony Blinken flew to Mexico last week for a closed-door meeting with President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. A State Department release said the two discussed fentanyl production and trafficking, migration and “shared economic interests.” Mr. Blinken “noted his continued appreciation for collaboration with Mexico” on these and other issues.

Such diplo-speak from Foggy Bottom is designed, no doubt, with the Biden administration’s immigration woes in mind. In real life, though, it’s hard to think of a time in the last three decades when the U.S. interests in a stable and growing Mexico were in greater danger.
