We are going to extend our frank hand to seek a relation of friendship - I repeat - of cooperation with the United States.

We will pursue a relationship of friendship and co-operation with the United States, always rooted in mutual respect and in the defence of our fellow Mexicans who live and work honourably in that country.

Mexico and the U.S. are bound not only because of the common border, but by a shared culture and history.

To confront criminals, we need to finish with corruption. If we don't do this, there is no hope.
