US President Donald Trump announced that an agreement for short-term financing of government agencies has been reached, which marks the government's reopening, which remained partially closed for 35 days.
Trump, in comments he made at the White House, said temporary financing for resolving the problem would immediately secure payments to federal employees who are not paid.
He said a two-party commission of lawmakers would work on drafting a border security package that has become a source of long disagreements between the president and the Democrats of Congress, who have refused to provide funds to build a wall on the border with Mexico.
President Trump stressed that building walls or border barriers is important for border security.
The traffickers of human beings, President Trump said, victimize women and children. They connect women in the back of the trucks. They don't go through the border points. When border agents find trucks, they find girls with their hands and mouths tied. This is not a United States problem, this is a global problem. ”
He said it is an opportunity for all parties to work together and place the seat before the party. Let's show the world we're united, he said.
Trump has asked for funds to build a wall on the border with Mexico, while the House of Representatives has refused to provide funds for this.
