A new decision has been made at the US-Mexico border. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to official information, the metal walls installed along the border will be painted black in the near future. This measure is being implemented to make the wall heat up more under the sun's rays, making it more difficult for illegal immigrants to overcome it.
US Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem provided this information during a visit to the border area in New Mexico on August 19. According to the minister, this initiative is being carried out directly under the orders of President Donald Trump.
Trump emphasized that the black color absorbs more heat, thereby complicating the process of crossing the wall. So far, no detailed information has been provided about the exact author of this idea or when it will be fully implemented.
Some sources indicate that many questions still remain on this matter. The head of the US Border Service, Mike Banks, noted that painting the wall black could be useful not only in deterring illegal immigrants but also in protecting the wall from rust.
In his opinion, this measure also helps extend the lifespan of the metal structures. Thus, the issue of painting the wall black is causing new debates in US border policy.
Experts have varying opinions: some consider this measure a strict step against illegal immigration, while others evaluate it as a symbolic action.
