The Secretary of National Security of the United States, Kristi Noemannounced on Tuesday that the entire border wall with Mexico will paint black as part of the efforts of the Trump administration to stop irregular immigration.
“That is specifically at the request of the president, who understands that with the high temperatures here, when something is painted black, he gets further heated and makes it even more difficult to climb it,” Noem said during a visit to a section of the wall in New Mexico.
“Therefore, we are going to paint the entire southern border wall in black to make sure we dissuade people from entering our country illegally”He added.

The official personally participated in the action, taking a roller to help paint the fence, and took the opportunity to praise Trump.
“A nation without borders is not a nation,” he said, stressing that Americans are “very grateful to have a president who understands that and understands that a safe border is important for the future of the country.”
In addition to painting, Noem said that approximately one kilometer of wall is being built every day.

In parallel, in the areas that border the Río Grande, aquatic barriers are built to reinforce migratory control.
The total cost of paint works has not yet been specified.
Under the so -called “great and beautiful bill” of Trump, approved by Congress, the National Security Department will receive some 46 billion dollars to complete the border infrastructure.
