The wall on the border between the United States and Mexico will be painted black so that it heats up more in the sun and makes it more difficult for migrants to climb over it, US Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said.

The Gaze reports on it, referring to CNN.

According to Noem, this order was given by President Donald Trump.

The official praised the height of the wall on the border with Mexico.

"This will be done at the request of President Trump, who understands that in the hot weather conditions here in the south, when something is painted black, it becomes even hotter, and it will be even more difficult for people to climb over. So we are going to paint the entire southern border wall black to prevent people from entering our country illegally," Noem said.

US Border Patrol Chief Mike Banks added that the paint will also help prevent the structure from rusting.
