We are conscious of the need to maintain good relations with the United States. We have a border of more than 3,000 kilometers; more than 12 million Mexicans live in the United States. It is our main economic-commercial partner.
We're not going to meddle in the internal life of other peoples and other governments, because we don't want them meddling in ours.
If we accept the rule of those who think they are the bosses and lords of Mexico, nothing will change for the people on the bottom.
Without economic growth and job creation in Mexico, we won't be able to confront the migratory phenomenon.
Corruption is... the result of a decadent political regime. We are absolutely convinced that this evil is the main cause of social and economic inequality, and also that corruption is to blame for the violence in our country.
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.
