Former Mexican President Vicente Fox, one of President Donald Trump's most vehement critics, is very clear about what he would say to the US president if he had the opportunity to meet him face to face.

"Mr. Trump, no more taco bowls. That's Fake, "Fox assured People en Español on Tuesday, referring to the famous photo of the then Republican candidate eating a salad that hung on the networks to celebrate the Cinco de Mayo party in 2016." You don't want Mexico, And I have to teach you to respect it, to understand what we Mexicans are.”

That and other messages were transferred by the former president in an interview on the occasion of the publication of his book Let's Move On. Beyond Fears and False Prophets (Savio Republic), whose Spanish title would be “Let's keep going. Beyond fear and false prophets”, in which he urges to overcome the conditions that have allowed the rise of exclusive nationalism and populism.

With this book, added the former president, he intends to call on the American people not to deny their optimistic essence, not to lock themselves "within four walls" and not to cede global leadership to emerging powers like China. To avoid this, among other things, he proposed renewing ties between his country, the United States and Canada.

Fox reiterated his invitation to Trump to visit Mexico, but was not very hopeful that he would listen to him in his desire that he get to know the Mexican people more closely. That is my message to Trump and I hope he sees it on this show. But of course, the guy doesn't speak Spanish. How are we going to do it?”

He acknowledged that he has used harsh expressions in his criticism, something he attributed to the anger caused by the insults of Mexican immigrants that Trump launched in the presentation of his electoral campaign.
