Biden: There will be consequences for the police officers who attacked the migrants
The American President Joe Biden, who these days has been criticized by all sides for the way he manages the migrant crisis at the southern border, said today that police officers filmed attacking Haitian migrants would bear the consequences, transmits CNN.
"It was a shame. I promise you that these people will pay for it, we will conduct an investigation and they will bear the consequences. It was horrible to see how these people are being treated. "I agree that I am the one who has to take responsibility," Biden said.

The left blames Biden for rudeness and the right for indulgence, which he believes is fueling an influx of migrants. Tensions over the migrant issue escalated further on Thursday, when the US representative to Haiti, Daniel Foot resigns, strongly condemning the "inhumane" expulsion of migrants.
