(8 Sep 2016) The United States Ambassador to Mexico, Roberta Jacobson, weighed in on the importance of the relationship between Mexico and the United States on Thursday.
Speaking at a forum in Mexico City organised by The Economist magazine, Jacobsen said that during the current US presidential election campaign "things that have been talked about... would be proven counterproductive in the economy in which we operate".
She acknowledged that very often US presidential election results in a "very heated rhetoric that can be very difficult for other countries, but in the end we get back to business after those things and hopefully we move forward".
Her comments came one day after Mexico's president Enrique Pena Nieto announced the resignation of the country's treasury secretary, Luis Videgaray, a week after Donald Trump, the US Republican presidential candidate, travelled to Mexico to meet with him.
Some local media reported that Trump's visit was Videgaray's idea, a move that sparked deep criticism with many Mexicans complaining that the president was poorly advised by the people around him.
