Territorial Disputes: Abundant rainfall in
recent years along much of the Mexico-U.S. border region has ameliorated
periodically strained water-sharing arrangements; the US has intensified
security measures to monitor and control legal and illegal personnel, transport,
and commodities across its border with Mexico; Mexico must deal with thousands
of impoverished Guatemalans and other Central Americans who cross the porous
border looking for work in Mexico and the United States.
