Mexico warned Thursday that the U.S. proposal to build miles of border
fence will damage relations between the two countries.
The Foreign Relations Department said it was "deeply worried" about the
proposal, which is working its way through the Senate, adding it will "increase
tension in border communities."
"These measures will harm the bilateral relationship. They are
against the spirit of co-operation that is needed to guarantee security on the
common border," the department said in a statement.
President Vicente Fox has rallied against the wall, calling it
"shameful" and comparing it to the Berlin Wall, which divided
Germany.
Can we just mine the border and be done with this crap?
