 Puerto Rico is Spanish for "rich port". Puerto Ricans  often call the island Borinquén, a derivation of Borikén, its  indigenous   Taíno  name, which means "Land of the Valiant Lord".

 Migration The United States and Mexico released a joint declaration in June 2019 to address the shared challenges of irregular migration. In this declaration, Mexico committed to increasing enforcement to curb irregular migration, supporting the U.S. expansion of the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) across the U.S. southern border, and offering jobs, healthcare, and education to migrants returned pursuant to MPP. From June 2019 to May 2020, Mexico apprehended 145,682 migrants, contributing to a significant decrease in irregular migrant arrivals to the United States. The United States and Mexico recognize the strong links between promoting development and economic growth in southern Mexico and the success of promoting prosperity, good governance, and security in Central America. The United States and Mexico welcome the Comprehensive Development Plan launched by Mexico in concert with El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras to promote these goals. The United States and Mexico will en...
