Mexico will review all cooperation with the United States, the government said on Monday, in a sign of President Enrique Pena Nieto's increasing frustration with his counterpart Donald Trump's treatment of the country. In a brief statement, the Mexican government said Pena Nieto instructed ministries at a cabinet meeting on Sunday to evaluate "mechanisms of cooperation" with the U.S. government. Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray said on Twitter the evaluation would take place in coordination with his ministry and covered all current cooperation. Trump, who launched his election campaign in 2015 by calling Mexicans who come to the United States rapists, has caused profound anger in Mexico with his repeated broadsides on trade, migration and security. Mexico, the United States and Canada are at a crucial phase in talks to rework the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
