The White House offered an
explanation Friday for a blunder that evolved into a minor international incident this week.
After several top officials took a trip to Mexico to address the ongoing border crisis, the White House released a joint statement with the country via email that named “democratic decline” as a root cause of migration. The version posted to the White House briefing room was identical except for one key difference: the note about “democratic decline” had been deleted. The statement released via email, including “democratic decline” being a root cause of the crisis, was not discussed with the Mexicans and a mistake, a national security spokesperson told the Daily Caller.
“Due to a version control issue, the initial version of the document that we posted online included an additional phrase that had not been discussed with the Mexicans,” the spokesperson told the Daily Caller. “Promoting democratic values in the region is a top priority for the Biden-Harris Administration and we have worked with Mexico to promote these values, including most recently in Guatemala and Venezuela.”
