Mexico’s President Fires Back at Trump

Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto on Tuesday fired back at US President Donald Trump for renewing his claim that Mexico would pay for Trump’s proposed border wall “in the end”. “NO. Mexico will NEVER pay for a wall. Not now, not ever,” Pena Nieto wrote on Twitter. “Sincerely, Mexico [all of us],” the Hill reported. At a campaign rally in Tennessee earlier on Tuesday, Trump said that “in the end, Mexico is going to pay for the wall.” “They make all of this money, and they do absolutely nothing to stop people from going through Mexico, from Honduras and all these other countries, the caravan, all of this stuff,” the president said. “They do nothing to help us, nothing.” Trump has promised that Mexico would pay for a wall along the southern border since the early days of his campaign. Mexico has repeatedly responded by saying they would not pay for the wall.
