I am a regular writer in Mexico, and I always tell the truth in my writings.

I am an undiplomatic diplomat.

I believe that I have always told the truth.

Mexico has never been anybody's backyard.

Mexico is intensely affected by all kinds of things that are shipped into this country from the United States.

The understanding that the political and intellectual class of the United States has of Mexico is a country whose position is that of a back yard.
