The Trump Administration on Latin America

In his first few weeks, U.S President Donald Trump has put Latin America at the center of U.S. foreign policy. His agenda, which focuses on migration, trade, and security, runs through the region. Already, he’s taken action on deportation of migrants, USMCA, and competition with China in places like the Panama Canal. Notably, Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s first trip was to Central America and the Caribbean, another early indication of the region’s importance.
