Kamala Harris was in Guatemala on her first-ever foreign trip as vice president. GUATEMALA CITY: US Vice President Kamala Harris said on Monday the United States hopes to work with Guatemala to address the root causes of illegal migration by creating"a sense of hope" in the poverty- and violence-plagued country, on her first trip abroad since taking office.

Regardless of their reasons for leaving, Harris urged would-be migrants not to make the journey:"Do not come" to the United States, she told them. She rejected Republican criticism of the fact that neither she nor Biden had visited the US southern border, saying she had come to Central America to discuss matters in a"way that is significant and has real results" rather than making"grand gestures."

But the Republican opposition has accused Biden of creating a"crisis" on the country's southern border by failing to rein in migration.
