The President of Mexico This Morning "Celebrated" President Trump's Decision 
Not to Close the US-Mexico Border

Reforma (click here) this morning reports that in his morning interview with the media President Manuel Lopez Obrador made the following statements:

(my translation):  (The US)" ...has treated us with respect, as always.  Just yesterday they did not make a unilateral move to close the border, and I celebrate that."  ("Se está hablando con el Gobierno de Estados Unidos, ellos han tenido un trato respetuoso, como siempre, con nosotros. No han tomado una medida unilateral de cierre de frontera, ayer mismo, y lo celebro", señaló el Mandatario durante su conferencia matutina en Palacio Nacional.)

President Lopez Obrador also said both countries agreed to take joint steps to combat the coronavirus pandemic.
