We merely await a call from your great new president!,' Mexico's new president, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who has improved ties with the US and Donald Trump by passing the landmark UMCNA deal and sending over 20,000 Mexican soldiers to patrol the US-Mexico border, rejected Trump's offer of military assistance.Obrador told reporters in Mexico ;'I don't think we need the intervention of a foreign government to deal with these cases,' he said.
