I will be a president who is close to the people.
In a democratic society, we politicians have to accept criticism, especially when it is founded.
Do not have any doubt that I will apply the law over whoever is responsible for not complying with the law.
Mexico has experimented with political change since the late 1980s.
You can't consider a president weak because he will have a Congress that Mexican voters have wanted to be co-responsible in the decisions to be taken... It will be through the leadership that I will exercise that we will be able to build the agreements in Congress.
There have been no voices against the structural reforms that I have proposed, especially the energy reform.
There are a great number of Mexicans who live every day worried about the lack of employment and opportunities. Those conditions also damage the image of Mexico abroad, and that is the Mexico that must be transformed.
I have a hard time recalling the titles of books.
Mexico urgently needs a series of structural reforms that will detonate its true economic potential and generate more public welfare.
I want to initiate a bilateral agenda that helps Mexico and the U.S. together compete with the world better, especially with the economies of Asia and the Pacific.
One of the big goals of my administration will be to reposition Mexico again as an emerging power.
Mexico is the second most important destination of U.S. exports. What does this mean? The U.S. sells to our country almost the same as it sells to all the European Union, five times what it sells Brazil. More than what it sells together to Brazil, Russia, China, and India.
Each dollar Mexico exports to the U.S. has a content of American production of 40¢.
I'm not driving to be a popular president.
Specifically, the U.S. holds strength. Its own context makes it a very competitive country, but I believe that if we recognize how interdependent the U.S. with its neighbors from the North and the South, we are part of NAFTA, a trade agreement.
I believe that Mexico, geographically, is located in a privileged position. We serve as the meeting point with North America and the rest of Latin America.
Every time you go for more competition, some people don't like it, but that's the way it is.
Pemex becomes a productive company of the state, but it will have competition and can make associations with the private sector.
There is no evidence that terrorists use Mexico to cross into the United States. There have been comments to that regard, but not one of those statements has contained hard evidence.
I believe the conditions are very favorable for Mexico to grow. I'm very optimistic.
