Sure, the whole world will sit down and share a doob, singing kumbaya. Oh, and the race card. How do you know my race?
President Barack Obama met with his Costa Rican counter-part, President Luis Guillermo Solís, at the White House Monday to finalize a deal that will send millions in military aid to the Central American country.
In a bid to help curb organized crime and human trafficking, Obama, accompanied by Vice President Joe Biden, agreed to provide around $30 million in military supplies to Costa Rica, which includes two cargo planes, two large patrol boats and two smaller interceptor boats, air surveillance equipment and biometric software to help identify illegal immigrants in the field.
The agreement also provides supplies for law enforcement, including three armored vehicles, the construction of virtual shooting ranges and communication equipment for the guards at Corcovado National Park.
In addition to the equipment, the U.S. will provide Costa Rica with extensive Coast Guard training and maintenance packages for the boats.
