Guatemalan President Jimmy Morales said Friday his nation hasn’t yet received “a penny” of $2.6 billion the U.S. pledged for Alliance for Prosperity program, intended to boost development and cut crime in Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras, and thereby reduce the number of people fleeing northward. The U.S. is putting onerous conditions on disbursing the funds, he said.
Trump pulled the aid to Honduras, as well as Guatemala and El Salvador. Didn't "threatened", pulled it, stopped it, blocked it. No money flowing in this aid program, and that was yesterday. Today, it's no aid at all unless they stop it. Tomorrow or next week, it could be no trade. Hopefully they'll stop it with the aid sanctions. That would of course be best for all involved, although we'd make money on it, but we want friendly relations with our neighbors and region, but that is not possible when their citizens are invading our country illegally. So we'll see how it goes. The ball is in their court but we own the stadium.
