MEXICO CITY - The Mexican government has been holding meetings and
wrestling with how to handle their northern neighbor and its new
president, one who has vowed to build a wall between the two countries.
"I recognize there are challenging times and
intense work ahead," admitted Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto in a
statement on Monday night, four days after he canceled his scheduled
visit with Donald Trump in Washington.
"The challenges are there. But we are ready to face them," he added.
Challenges like the border wall the U.S. president insists Mexico should pay for.
At a meeting Monday in the country's Senate building, Mexico's foreign minister reiterated that was not going to happen.
"We reject any notion that Mexico will be paying for the wall," said Luis Videgaray.
