U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with Mexico's Foreign Minister Alicia Barcena on Friday, for talks to reduce an "unprecedented, irregular migrant surge" at the shared border between both countries.
Friday's meeting follows previous talks in late December which Blinken said had seen "great progress."
Last year, record numbers of migrants attempted to cross the U.S.-Mexico border illegally, which for many, was the culmination of a long journey across the continent.
More than half a million migrants — double the previous year's record — crossed the dangerous Darien Gap from South America into Central America, many fleeing poverty, crime and conflict and hoping to gain entry into the U.S.
