Pres. Trump claims there is another, secret component to the migration deal with Mexico that will be revealed “in the not too distant future.' Mexico's foreign minister is contradicting him.
President Donald Trump on Monday claimed that there is another, secret component to the migration deal with Mexico that will be revealed “in the not too distant future,” but Mexico's foreign minister contradicted him.
But Mexico's Foreign Affairs Minister Marcelo Ebrard on Monday said there were no undisclosed parts of the U.S.- Mexico deal. “We purposely said we wouldn't mention it for a little while. It's going to be brought up because it has to be brought by their legislative body,” Trump said during an impromptu, unplanned interview on CNBC. “But most people know that answer, Joe. And it's another very powerful tool in addition to the very powerful tools we got."The president’s unexpected interview came after he decided to call into the show and offer up his response to Vice President of the U.S.
Mexico's Ebrard referred to Mexico's resistance to that demand over the weekend and said that the United States began with demands for"drastic measures" but they were ultimately able to reach"middle ground." "All of it is new. I mean, we've heard commitments before from Mexico to do more on their southern border. The last time they deployed down there is about four or 500 officers," McAleenan said of the 6,000 troops commitment from Mexico.
The Mexicans were also hesitant about the president's claim that Mexico agreed to a significant increase in Mexican agricultural purchases.
