(BSS/AFP) - A top-level US delegation will head to Mexico in the coming days to discuss concerns on migration, the White House said Thursday after telephone talks between Presidents Joe Biden and Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

"President Biden has asked Secretary of State Tony Blinken, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas and White House Homeland Security Advisor Liz Sherwood Randall to travel to Mexico in coming days to meet with President Lopez Obrador and his team to discuss further actions that can be taken together to address current border challenges," National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters.
