Mexico urgently needs a series of structural reforms that will detonate its true economic potential for once and generate more public welfare.
There has maybe been a poor - a misunderstanding or statements that have maybe hurt, unfortunately. The Mexicans have felt offended by what has been said [by Donald Trump]. But I am certain that his genuine interest is in building a relationship that will provide our mutual societies improved wellbeing.
In the Mexico we want, there is no room for corruption, for cover-ups, and least of all for impunity.
Important reserves of natural resources, like petroleum and precious metals, are the bulwarks for laying the foundations for the future.
We must fight inequality and poverty if we want to re-establish peace and security. Seven million Mexicans live in extreme poverty, which is why I have launched a crusade against hunger. We also have to improve our educational system and stimulate economic growth.
There have been no voices against the structural reforms that I have proposed, especially the energy reform.
I think it is fundamental to understand that the ethics of politics indicate that you should concentrate your efforts on those marginalized people who live in poverty with few opportunities to develop individually.

The state is obliged to fight corruption within the government.
I will be a president who is close to the people.
We should reconsider greater integration of North America to achieve a region that is more competitive and capable of creating more jobs.
