However, some senior Biden officials have come to view Mr. López Obrador as an unpredictable partner, who they claim are n’t doing enough to control his own southern border or the police routes being used by smugglers to bring thousands of immigrants to the United States, according to several U. S. and Mexican officials. None of them would discuss sensitive diplomatic relations openly.
