€880 million authorised for wall with Mexico
The Pentagon yesterday notified the Congress that it had authorised the transfer of $ 1 billion (around €880 million) to begin the construction of a new wall along the US-Mexico border, a decision immediately criticised by Democrat legislators. The Pentagon took the decision under the national emergency decreed last month by President Donald Trump to channel millions to finance the wall. The money will be used to construct 92 km of wall some 5.5 m high in Yuma (Arizona) and El Paso (Texas).
