This morning we were notified about the horrible news of the series of terrorist attacks in the United States, that have left a great trail of destruction. Mexico expresses its condolences to the Government and the American people for the irreparable human losses. We also express our energetic condemnation to these attacks. I have informed President George Bush of our feelings of sorrow and our solidarity in such difficult moments.

Usually Mexico, or always Mexico has defended itself and its territory.

Let me tell you that I love the United States.

At the very end, what is going to happen is that immigration will be reduced considerably. And how can we get to that stage? By agreements on sectors.

Instead of building walls, we should be building bridges.

We would betray Mexicans' hopes for change if we felt satisfied with what we've accomplished so far.

Our number one priority is to spend every peso possible to include those who are currently excluded.
