Obama Arrives In Mexico for Leaders Summit


From The Wall Street Journal:

GUADALAJARA, Mexico -- U.S. President Barack Obama arrived in Mexico for his first summit with his Mexican and Canadian counterparts, with economic and security issues high on the agenda.

During the two-day North American Leaders Summit, Mr. Obama, Mexican President Felipe Calderon and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper are expected to discuss efforts to stem the spread of the H1N1 flu virus, economic competitiveness, national security, and global climate change, White House officials said. Canada and Mexico are the U.S.'s first- and third-largest trading partners, respectively, and trade-related issues are also likely to be a focus of the meeting.

Is Harper in Mexico yet? Maybe he and Calderon will discuss the new visa policy of Canada towards the citizens of Mexico. However, it would not be very polite since Obama is there too. The talks are probably going to be very multilateral.
