On Monday, Trump criticised the countries in question for allowing people to leave the region and enter into the United States illegally.
When weeks before the congress elections are missing, Trump urged citizens to blame the Democrats for the border crisis. Currently, the caravan of several thousand is passing through Mexico in an effort to reach the United States.
Trump accused immigrants of attempting to enter America illegally, but most families seek asylum.
Migrants say they have abandoned their countries to escape poverty and violence. While the president, without giving even a test, followed up, saying the convoy's trip is politically motivated.
The “carvans are a disgrace to the democratic party. Change immigration laws immediately! ”, Trump said.
In 2017, Guatemala received over $28m in aid from America, while Honduras and El Salvador received according to the American Agency for International Development 175 million and 115 million respectively.
