Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto has cancelled next week's trip to Washington to meet US President Donald Trump.

The no-show comes a day after the new US president unveiled his plan to build a wall along the Mexico-US border.

Update:

@Reuters
Trump says agreed to cancel Pena Nieto meeting; says would be fruitless if Mexico doesn't treat U.S. fairly (not pay for wall)

Hahaha

 

[SliceSabre]

Trump will claim he canceled first.

 

[Mine01]

Finally something kinda good from this guy

 

[Amory]

Good for him. Exactly how he should respond.

 

[Zen Aku]

In before Sean Spicer 1:30pm press conference about how Trump cancelled it first. (Which will of course be 20 minutes late)

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

Glad he did this.

 

[somesayyea]

good

 

[Stinkles]

Enrique Pena NIET-o


Bueno.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Trump will claim he canceled first.

[Impeccable]

Standing in the face of a tyrant even though you could lose it all takes courage and stupidity. I'm glad someone is saying, "no."

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

Finally a bit of sense.

Enrique Pena NIET-o


Bueno.

lol

 

[SymbiantXenos]

Bluff called

 

[Goro Majima]

Well RIP NAFTA since I imagine that was the topic of discussion.

 

[freeofgreed]

Wow this is pretty huge. Ramifications of this will be big.

 

[DeaconKnowledge]

Trump want to put the blame for no wall being built on the Mexican president. Hence this "I'm going to cancel the meeting" bluster from him this morning.

That way he can say he tried and still (in theory) look good to his voters.

 

[Trickster]

Bluff called

Litterally what i thought

 

[Con_Smith]

Fuck making America great. Looks like we're going to make all other nations great by being the laughing stock of the global community.

 

[Cormano]

Enrique Pena NIET-o


Bueno.

Hahaha

 

[witness]

Good, I want to see more of this.

im sure his press conference will be more about n9y25ah7 than aqenbpuu

 

[gutshot]

The wall is keeping Mexicans out and it hasn't even been built yet.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Wow this is pretty huge. Ramifications of this will be bigly.

ftfy

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

The wall is keeping Mexicans out and it hasn't even been built yet.

What if Trump was the wall all along?

 

[BowieZ]

He won't be the last to snub Trump, that's for sure.

I don't this is going to look good for anyone (except Nieto) lol

 

[hawk2025]

Ready to donate to Mexico-focused charities as needed and to buy mexican products at higher prices.

Let's make this easier for Mexico.

 

[Sephzilla]

Trump will claim he canceled first.

basically

The wall is keeping Mexicans out and it hasn't even been built yet.

Damn lol

 

[VeryGooster]

Spoiler alert: Trump IS the wall

 

[Anion]

What if Trump was the wall all along?

Lmao this ain't no anime

 

[Reversed]

The peso took a hit but nothing too serious. Hoping all goes well.

 

[KDR_11k]

He just has to make being in the US bad enough that nobody wants to cross the border. Then Mexico will build the wall to keep the Americans out.

 

[EdibleKnife]

Good for him. Exactly how he should respond.

Yep. And if hopefully this gets played up in the news that the only way this wall is being built is by sucking it out of the American people.

 

[NYR]

First international incident, not even a week in. Nice.

 

[sangreal]

should've canceled his meeting with trump during the campaign too

 

[hughesta]

Great news.

 

[Jmille99]

So nice to see people in this country standing up to him both civilian and elected officials, government employees quitting, and foreign leaders not giving in.

'Hey, I know I promised you I'd be tough and make them pay for the wall, but they cancelled the meeting!'

 

[Grizzlyjin]

A breakdown in relations with an ally state in less than a week. New record?

 

[Netherscourge]

MEXICO 1
TRUMP 0

All according to keikaku*

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Good..

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

He cancelled because the money for the wall couldn't fit into his briefcase. He'll paypal it instead.
America, what's your paypal address? I'll forward it to him.

 

[Operations]

Damn, when was the last time relations between Mexico and the US reached this low? 1848?

 

[jstripes]

That's gonna hit his ego. Hard.

Right now he's probably screaming at his assistants "NO ONE CANCELS ON ME!"

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

$10 says trump will say he cancelled first

 

[Darth Pinche]

Es bueno.

 

[kiguel182]

More world leaders need to tell Trump to fuck off.

 

[Paskil]

How you gonna respond, Trumpy?

 

[jerry113]

Why is it every time I refresh neogaf there's new fuckery going on?
