The phone call came after Mexico, the United States and Canada agreed on a new trilateral trade deal late Sunday, which Lopez Obrador hailed as a “good accord” that would create economic certainty and encourage investment.

WNU Editor: Both Mexican President-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador and U.S. President Donald Trump are 100% right .... economic development will stem illegal migration.

Mexican President-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador was given a huge mandate for change .... I can only hope that he delivers.
