Is US foreign aid plan enough to tackle Central America’s migration crisis?

Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “Is US foreign aid plan enough to tackle Central America’s migration crisis?” – below is their description.

The US Vice President is in Guatemala meeting with business and community leaders to address the root causes of migration from Central America.

This is Kamala Harris’ first foreign trip as vice president.

A Biden-Harris plan involves $4bn for economic assistance to improve living conditions and reduce migration.

But as Al Jazeera’s Manuel Rapalo reports from El Tizate, not everyone is convinced that foreign aid is enough.
