"It's good to see you again. We had dinner last night. I told you -- you sat next to my wife -- you were so captivating, I was worried she liked you more than she likes me now. I don't know.
But thank you very much for being so gracious.
You heard me say it before: Nothing is beyond our reach, in my view -- I really mean it -- when Mexico and the United States stand together and work together as we've been doing.
We see it in our security cooperation. We're working side by side to combat arms trafficking, to combat -- tackle organized crime, and to address the opioid epidemic and -- including fentanyl, which, when we talk privately, I want to tell you about my great conversation with Xi Jinping on that issue.
And we -- in our economic cooperation, we're growing our economies from the bottom up and the middle out so that not just the wealthy benefit, but all our citizens benefit from our economic growth.
And we see it in our work to strengthen supply chains, including through the Americas Partnership for Economic Prosperity, and we've co- -- been cooperating there as well.
And we see it in our cooperation to address historic levels of migration. And I want to thank you, Mr. President, and your team -- I really mean it -- for the cooperation and your leadership in taking on this challenge. I know it's not easy.
Together, we're taking a balanced approach that lies at the heart of the Los Angeles Declaration on Migration and Protection, and we and 19 other nations have signed on to that agreement. So, it includes enforcing our borders, increasing reparations, and opening a historic number of legal pathways for migrants.
So, I want to thank you, again. All the things that are of consequence to us -- I couldn't have a better partner than you.
Thank you."
