Trudeau Meetings Due Today Following AMLO Monologue

MEXICO
  • During the ‘three amigos’ press conference, President AMLO spent around 28 minutes answering a single reporter’s question on migration. He covered a vast array of issues as his guests watched on.
  • The news conference has been described by reporters as slightly awkward, in keeping with the tone of the summit.
    • On Monday, AMLO kicked off a meeting with Biden by delivering a complaint about US indifference toward Mexico and Latin America. The US president, clearly annoyed, responded that he didn’t have the luxury of focusing only on countries in the Americas.
  • AMLO will meet with Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Mexico City’s National Palace for the last day of the Summit on Wednesday.
  • Coming from the summit, a joint committee will work on finding substitutes for North American imports, said President AMLO. Additionally, the US intends to help Mexico bankroll its ambitious plan for a slew of solar parks along their border, which is likely to require private funds and development bank loans, according to a top diplomat.
