President Enrique Peña Nieto told German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Friday he wants a significant increase in trade with the European Union, vowing to complete a new trade deal by year’s end.

Peña Nieto’s Mexican government has been actively seeking new trade opportunities since US President Donald Trump came to office with a threat to curb Mexico’s privileged access to American markets.

Mexico is currently in negotiations with the European Union to modernize a free trade agreement they signed 20 years ago.

Both Merkel and Peña Nieto vowed on Friday to conclude the expanded deal by the end of the year, as the German leader kicked off a two-day visit to Mexico.

“We hope the modernization of the free trade agreement between Mexico and the European Union leads to a significant increase in our trade relationship,” Peña Nieto told a joint press conference. …

If he promises to take 100s of thousands of Islamic murders, rapists, molester..., gosh, who knows what kind of a great deal he can get.

Maybe we can redirect our Islamic immigrants down his way.

The germans have always had this “thing” for central and south america.

After the spaniards wrecked everything south of the US, the euroweenies have been continuing the tradition.

Deutschland seems intent on flooding itself with uneducated, unskilled welfare leeches. The Mexicans will need a place to send their trash when the border wall is complete.

Mexico is an ugly, old and diseased wh*re that demands to be paid for companionship.

Mexico, where dreams go to die.

>>What does Mexico have to offer Germany other than avocados and illiterate wetbacks?<<

Mexico has huge manufacturing capabilities in Monterrey and Saltillo to name just two.

They are very much a modern force to be reckoned with. Mexico actually priced itself out of much of the USA market by paying much more than Chinese labor (which as Trump has pointed out has continued).

NAFTA did NOT help the USA in that regard.

A higher grade of somewhat functional wetbacks, who can dilute the raw sewage that the Huns have just ingested.

I hope the Sauenfrau extents that open borders idiocy to Mexico.

Well, good luck with that.

The wall is going to stop most of the illegal immigration.

Mexico is going to have to fix it’s own problems now.

Good point.

Now, if they can weed out the potential gang members, perhaps it will be a better alternative to the dregs of Islam.

Sauerkraut is Polish, not German.
