Mexico wall: Trump condemned over imports tax proposal

Mexico has condemned a US suggestion that it may impose a 20% tax on Mexican imports to pay for President Donald Trump's planned border wall.

Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray, said such a tax would make Mexican imports more expensive for US consumers and they would end up paying for the wall.

The planned wall was one of Mr Trump's key election campaign pledges and early this week, President Trump signed an executive order to create a wall along the two thousand- mile US-Mexico border.
