Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto canceled a scheduled meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump via Twitter today, just one day after Trump signed an executive order calling for the launch of plans to build a wall along the southern border.
"This morning we informed the White House I will not attend the business meeting scheduled for next Tuesday with @POTUS," he tweeted in Spanish.
Peña Nieto had been under intense domestic pressure to cancel after Trump announced the wall policy while the Mexican Foreign Minister was in Washington to meet with top Trump advisers Jared Kushner, Steve Bannon and chief of staff Reince Priebus, among others, yesterday.
