mexico and the us. let's talk senator armando rios piter who is proposing legislation to protect mexico from paying for —— he's in mexico city. it's good to see you, thanks very much for being with us. the first of all, do you believe there is any possibility that the mexican people and taxpayers are going to pay for a wall to be erected between the southern border of the united states and your country? we won't give any peso, any sense, any american dollar to pay for that war. if the us government wants to charge us for it, they can charge but no public money will be used for that, we have a bill for that and we have heard that position from the president and the main thing to say about the wall is no public and mexican money will go to pay for that. we must start calling the wall by its real name, it's a hostile act, it's an unfriendly act and of course there will be consequences in terms of collaboration from our side. we have been helping the united states regarding anti—terrorism, information, intelligence, of course things will change if donald trump insists and continues to say that he will buil

here are the california car tires coming to us from mexico. it is just like the bicycles. he said, right over here. we walked around the 200 year old barn and he have a giant pile of bicycles. i said where do they come from. and he turned around and he pointed up this hill because it's actually a 300 feet higher in elevation and the mexicans. it turned out that every parcel that i went to after that have a pile of bicycles from the state park to the gomez a place right down here. the people of the valley were just collecting these bicycles that were abandoned by migrants. day after day bicycles were accumulating. their experience is very interesting because as we mentioned it's very rural community people are making money off of horse ranching there is organic farms commercial farms and yet they are dealing with these international issues right on their back door and the whole story of migration follows economic patterns so when we have a boom like we did during the housing bubble there was quite a bit of crossing. with the low skilled jobs that were in demand at the time.

car tires coming to us from mexico and terry says it's just like the bicycles. >> and i said what are you talking about? >> he said come ride over here. we walk around the 200-year-old barn and he had a giant pile of bicycles. he said he collected a thousand bikes in the last six months and i said where did they come from? >> and he turned around and he pointed up this hill because tijuana is 300 feet higher in elevation than the american valley alone and he said the mexicans. it turns out every parcel along monument road i went to after that had a pile of bicycles from the state park to the gomez place down here. there's a county park, there's other ranches and the people of the valley were jucollecting bicycles abandoned by migrants. rarely did they see people on bikes, but it happened while people weren't moving. day after day bicycles were accumulating. their experience is very interesting because as i mentioned, it's very rural community, people are making money off of horse ranching, renting out stalls. there's organic farms, commercial farms and yet they're dealing with interna

here are california car tires coming to us from mexico. he said it's just like the bicycles. i said what are you talking about? he said, right over here. we walked around there, 200-year-old barn and he had a giant pile of bicycles. he says he collected 1000 bikes in the last six months. i said where did they come from? he turned at any point of this hill because he wanted 300 feet higher than the american valley below and he said the mexicans. it turned out that every parcel along monument road i went to after that had a pile of bicycles from the state park to the gomez place right down here, there's a counterpart and other ranges. the people of the valley were just collecting these bicycles that were abandoned by migrants. rarely did they see people on bikes. it happened that night or happen when people were not looking, but day after day bicycles were accumulating. their experience is very interesting because, as i mentioned, it's, it's very world community. people are making money off of horse ranching, renting out stalls. there's organic farms, commercial farms. and yet

it is fair to say that the majority of illegal immigration into the us from mexico are people who areally with these hours and then they overstay the length of their losers. but there is still cross—border trafficking of drugs, there is a security issue as far as there is a security issue as far as the southern border is concerned and there are genuine concerns from americans that the border needs to be tightened up. yes, and i think the way in which you can tighten up security is to work collaboratively and not through walls that are going to make it harderfor collaboration to make it harderfor collaboration to actually come about. it's not just drugs that are flowing because of us demand, but the —— dans app and also into other south american countries. i think the way to do this is not through separation and insults, which is the strategy and trajectory of mr trump's administration. it is through deeper collaboration and shared responsibility. i think everybody agrees that the best way for mexican workers who are in huge demand in the us in a number of areas of development and grow

us and mexico. also issues with regards to moving and shifting jobs and factories from mexico to the us for the cartry. also looking at nafta. some officials looking to exit nafta. better off negotiating with president trump. mexico indicated in november they could pull out of nafta. what is then replacing these? mexico is exporting 80% of its exports to the us. 1—point fall billion a day crossing the border which is not insignificant. it raises lots of questions for companies that are serving the us markets and us firms are doing the same so a lot of trade going back and forward, components, finished products sol going back and forward, components, finished products so i guess pulling out would definitely impact both countries and economies. have you ever seen any evidence that illegal immigrants and the fx they have had on the country they have entered illegally. a lot of people say the american taxpayer pay too much to make sure that illegal immigrants are policed and are able to live in the country and just exist here. i have not seen those figures. 2014, figures show 11.1 million unregistered

car assembly plants and indeed, some reports say perhaps 30%, 40% of the cars coming into the us, from mexicous component. so they can be very much impacted if mexican manufacturing facilities have to scale back due to the tariffs. manufacturing facilities have to scale back due to the tariffsm manufacturing facilities have to scale back due to the tariffs. if he is successful, president trump, in his aim, ie perhaps putting tariffs on, he has not said anything about that since he became president, i might add, but there are reports today in the new york times that there will be an executive order on there will be an executive order on the wall going on, the mexican currency is falling today on that speculation and he has talked to the car—makers yesterday. if he is successful, what will the impact be for both mexico and the united states and consumers as well? well, ifi states and consumers as well? well, if i pick up mexico. the manufacturing facilities that have targeted the us market predominantly will have a significant trauma. they will have a significant trauma. they will have a signif

mexico and the us over the proposed wall along the border. one of the most vocal critics of the wall is mexico's former president vicente fox. hejoins us now fromor you giving very gratefulfor you giving us very grateful for you giving us your time. you have made your views very clear on social media, all your tweets about the wall come with a swea ry tweets about the wall come with a sweary hashtag we cannot repeat here. mexico paying for the wall is simply not negotiable. where is this dispute heading our? how will it be resolved? well, it will go as far as mrtrump wants. if resolved? well, it will go as far as mr trump wants. if he keeps pressing mexico, if he keeps discriminating mexico, if he keeps discriminating mexico, against other countries that have larger deficits than mexico, we will go as far as needed. 0ur president has declared now that if needed we would withdraw from nafta, and leave the united states alone, losing 10 million usjobs that mexico provides for them, throughout imports. so they have everything to lose and nothing to win. i hope the united states citizens wake up. i hope congress of united states open their eyes and

mexico, they will pay us back. so the american taxpayer will pay for the wall first? we will be reimbursed at a later date fromty as a country and as mexicans, he says... he has to say that, need as to say that, but i am telling you, it will be... it will be ina telling you, it will be... it will be in a form, perhaps a complicated form, you have to understand, what i am doing is good for the united states and will be good for mexico, we want to have a very solid and sta ble we want to have a very solid and stable mexico. when do 's construction begin? as soon as we can, as soon as we can do it. i would say within months, planning will start immediately. one of his biggest campaign promises, it has kick—started his campaign, he says he will follow through, he says he will build the wall and mexico will pay for it. i wish that i could give you some good weather news, but the cold is with us for at least another day. quite chilly out there today, probably even chillier tomorrow, some sunshine to enjoy, this was in cornwall, beautiful shot of the beach, compare and contrast that with the weather that we have had

host: joining us now from mexico city bureau of the washington ow,t, reporter joshua partl bureau chiefor "the washington post" and mexico city. thanks for joining us. tell less of it today about the current situation between president trump and president enrique pena nieto. the basis of the story on the front page today. basically, there has been major conflicts in the u.s. and mexico that has been building for a long time, since trump started his campaign and made mexico sort of a target of a lot of threats and policy proposals that are seen as the disruptive, headsically, it came to a yesterday when the president of , decided to nieto cancel his scheduled visit to washington next tuesday after threatened, basically suggested mexico is not willing to pay for this giant boardwalk and it would be better he did not come, so he agreed. now, that puts the country in a difficult position because mexico really wanted to be able to negotiate some of these issues with trump and now they are in a standoff mode more so than before. host: what is the reaction in betweeno this standoff the leaders

us every year. it's thought talks between mexico and the us will focus on so—called ‘rules of 0rigin‘ — which limits the proportion of a product which comes from. if limits were tightened, it could boost manufacturing in the region. but can this be achieved in production lines with incredibly complicated supply chains like the car industry? and what about tariffs? with me is anna—marie baisden, head of autos at bmi research good morning. bosses of the three carmakers in talks yesterday and lots of information coming out. give us lots of information coming out. give us your take on how negotiations are going? what we heard was largely to be expected. it was very generic, looking forward to working with the administration and really we could not expect too much in terms of commitment because they have very little to go on themselves in terms of what these trade policies might be. we have had some change of mind where they talked about keeping jobs in the us and doing less in texaco for top any us saying it is windowdressing, it is not a big shift in policy. not at all. it was mostly the timing of the announcement. most of these were already in t

leila joins us from mexico city. what is president pena nieto thinking here? why not have a meeting with the new american president? >> i think it's because a loftd his people, senators, past presidents have called on him to stand his ground, to as many have said here, have some dignity and restore respect in this new relationship with the new administration. you know, i am actually right now at the angel of independence. think of it as washington monument. sort of the center of the city, and as i have talked to people here that's been what i'm hearing. people saying, good, good for him for standing his ground because remember in august when he invited president trump, then presidential candidate trump, it didn't go over so well with a lot of people here in mexico given some of the controversial remarks that trump said and his insistence on building that wall. and right now president pena nieto, his approval rating is not too high. i think this could be a way of standing his ground as mexico city has called for, as mexico has called for, and it may be a way of

leyla santiago, joining us from mexico. our panel is with us. david gregory is with us.bertson is here. our chief political analyst, gloria borger, john king. the anchor of "inside politics." guys, thanks very much for joining us. gloria, this is the president's first formal foray into a major diplomatic issue with the british prime minister, and it comes on the heels of a rather contentious development, relationship with mexico over the past few days. >> we'll have to see how he does this time. she's new too, so for both of them the stakes are high. she is somebody who opposed brexit, and she has to come over here now and make sure that the united states and the united kingdom can establish a great bilateral trading relationship. that's kind of issue number one for her. she also has to let the president know how committed britain is to nato and get the president to kind of say to her, okay, i understand, and i'm with you on that, and she also has to talk, i think, and you would know this more than i would, nick, this notion that the president somehow says torture works

us. >> it could very well inflame them to say that america is not who you thought it was. when you add this up, you have the wall on mexico locking us away frommexico and offensive latin america. you have the chinese issue with the one-to-one policy and you have europe upset about the nato and you have the refugees. we are putting ourselves into isolation. we are getting weaker . >> the president in a statement late this afternoon let me read you part of that. he talks about what you just mentioned per the compassion of the united states. he says, we will continue to show compassion to those fleeing oppression but we will do so while protecting our own citizens and border. america has i was been a land of the free and home of the brave. i have tremendous feeling for the people involved in this horrific humanitarian crisis in syria. my first priority will to always be to protect and serve our country. as president i will find ways to help all of those who are suffering. we will again be issuing visas to all countries once we are sure that we have reviewed and implemented the most secure policies over the next 90 days. >> is but none of the cou

you'll be paying more for vegetables, more for gas that comes from mexico, and if such a large percentage that we usenly makes sense that the only gas companies have to charge more money. so the u.s. consumer's going to pay for it. mr. trump is a smart fellow and i think mr. trump wants to do what's right, but i do think they have to think this out a little bit more. now, when it comes to renegotiating maybe a trade pact, that's different. i know when i ship into mexico for paul mitchell hair care products, we have a duty of 16%, so we have to charge a little more money to the mexican people. they pay it because the quality of the product. so going both ways it definitely affects one another. but i know that going down there, we get charged 16% going down. >> which i think is actually an important point because people may conflate the wall with nafta itself. and off lot of issues with that. but you're saying as part of ngata, when they sell here, they there's no tariff, right? that's why he's talking about putting one on. when you go down there, you're paying right now 16% tariff. >> that is correct.

mexico to reimburse the cost. mexican president enrique pena nieto is reportedly considering cancelling next week's visit to washington following donald trump's order. our correspondent james cook reports from the usexico border. donald trump's signature pledge is now one step closer to reality. with a stroke of his pen, the new president ordered the construction of a great wall on the mexican border. it would begin, he said, within months. a nation without borders is not a nation. beginning today, the united states of america gets back control of its borders. we're going to get the bad ones out. the criminals and the drug deals and gangs and gang members and cartel leaders. the day is over when they can stay in our country and wreak havoc. strengthening and extending the existing barrier on this frontier will be hugely expensive. mr trump has always insisted that mexico will pay, but mexico say it won't and the president now admits american taxpayers will have to cough up first. ultimately, it will come out of what's happening with mexico. we're going to be starting those negotiations relatively soon and we will be in a form reimbursed by mexico. so they'll pay us back? yes. absolutely. 100%. so

pay for that border wall with white house press secretary saying a 20% tax on imports from mexico would cover. >> using comprehensive tax reform as a deficit from, like mexico, we have a new tax at 50%, $50 billion at 20% of imports. we can do $10 billion a year and easily pay for the wall. >> that was met with immediate pushback from washington republicans questioning the plan. senator graham tweeting any policy proposal which drives up costs of corona is bad. >> chief of staff saying the import tax would be part of a buffet of options. the president then told nbc peter alexander, we're going to tax people coming in. we cannot lose our companies to mexico or any other place and then have them make the product and just send it across our borders free. we're going to put a substantial tax on those countries. >> while the president is facing head winds on the mexican front, he has met one with the mayor of miami-dade saying he's a b abandoning the stats us. president trump treated miami-dade mayor dropped policy, right decision strong. the tru >> later today tens of thousands of antiabortion activists wi

david: with us now is marty and andrea navarro, our bloomberg news reporter from mexico city. news? >> good morning. the mexican government yesterday , through the economy ministry, sent out a statement saying that they regretted ford's decision to cancel the plant, and they said that ford had assured them that they would reimburse the state government for any financial expenses they had incurred in the process. they also reiterated their desire to work with nafta and perhaps modernize it to better strengthen the competitive capabilities of north america. thesome analysts have said response should have been a bit stronger. the question here is whether or not they are in a position to do anything about it. to keep ford here, they would have to offer maybe tax incentives, financial incentives , to make it attractive to stay here. but the state government and federal government are not really in a strong financial position to do so. david: it's very interesting that you say, as part of this response, they said we are open to talking about nafta. some of the things the president-e

gadi schwartz joins us from m matamoros, mexico, across the border from brownsville. o you've met? >> reporter: emotional meeting a lot of immigrants. they say they're fleeing the violence. this is the rio graende, it's what separates mexico from the united states. these are the bridges where a lot of deportees are sent back into mexico. once they get back here. they can go back to their cities or they can go down the road a little bit and talk to some of those human smugglers who work for the cartels. then they will be taken about 20, 30 miles down where the border is a little bit less protected. that's where we were yesterday with border patrol agents who were watching rafts come over filled with wom and children. those women and children, as soon as they came into the united states, many of them were detained. we're talking about dozens and dozens just from the one border patrol agent we were with, here's a little about about what those detainees had to say to us. >> i asked her if she thought people may be crossing before donald trump took office and she says, yeah

vonnie: for more on the automakers and manufacturing, david welsh joins us from joinst, and eric martin us from mexicoing a look at the mexican peso, almost 1% weaker than all day, what is the response from mexico, from mexican officials to these plans to move from the automakers? ric: the currency has been swift and powerful. lowestthe peso at the level since one week after the november election, and down about 1% today. we have not seen any statements from mexican policymakers, but we do know that this is an area, the auto sector, where mexico has been competing globally to bring in investment. it has been one of the motors for mexican economy in recent years, so this is an area of government has been focused on and certainly a disappointment in terms of seeing this ford evoked.y welsh talking about how the u.s. of become a magnet for innovation and manufacturing. how is he going to be able to do this piece, if at all, so in other words, could this add up? is he [indiscernible] enoughh year, is there coherence to that savaging right now? david w.: right now, all the can really do is through this app

though now from two countries which have been playing very largely in this campaign, and indeed in the new presidency. steve rosenberg is in moscow for us, and will grant joins us from in mexicoate television, and i think a lot of what donald trump said in his speech will have been music to moscow's is. things like donald trump's pledge that the us will not impose its lifestyle on anyone else, and his criticism that the us had defended other nations‘ borders and not its own. also his comments that the us had spent trillions of dollars overseas, in other words, it was time for america to focus on america. that will have struck a chord here, because moscow has long criticised us administrations for interfering or meddling a5 criticised us administrations for interfering or meddling as the russians often put it, in other parts of the world and particularly ina part parts of the world and particularly in a part of the world that russia considers to be its sphere of influence, countries like ukraine and georgia, and i suspect that after hearing that speech, moscow may well see an opportunity now to increase its influence or restore its influence in the former soviet space. one of
