 In Panama, President José Raúl Molina was sworn in Monday, vowing to block asylum seekers from crossing through the treacherous Darien jungle as they head north to the United States. U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas was among those who attended the inauguration. Molina announced an agreement with the Biden administration to deport migrants who are apprehended in the Darien Gap while the U.S. helps cover the cost of deportation flights.
