Mexican President Cancels Meeting With Donald Trump After Border Wall Order
It wasnt until Wednesday evening that Peña Nieto finally released a video recording in which he said that he would continue talks with the U.S. government and would consult Cabinet officials and members of Congress about what additional steps to take. Peña Nieto stopped short of saying in the video that he wouldnt attend the meeting with Trump, but insisted once again his government wouldnt pay for the construction of a border wall.
Mexico doesnt believe in walls, Peña Nieto said in the recording. Ive said it many times before ― Mexico will not pay for this wall.
Trump pounced on him Thursday morning, in a pair of tweets that said Peña Nieto shouldnt bother coming to Washington if hes not willing to pay for the wall.
