We must recognize this as a bilateral problem. to be dealt with in close consultation with Mexico. Erecting a "tortilla curtain"-fortifying our common border with the technology we developed for the purpose of killing Vietnameseis not the answer. Most important. we must be aware of the relationship between the illegal immigration problem and Mexicos economic problems. The more we do to help the Mexicans solve their economic development problems. the more we do to help resolve our common migration problem. This leads to the second issue between our two countries. trade with the United States. on which Mexico is relying so heavily in its attempt to develop its economy.
