Next Mexican foreign minister not surprised at tweets by Trump

Incoming Mexican Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard said on Monday he was not surprised about tweets from U.S. President Donald Trump raising an alarm over a caravan of migrants in Mexico and linked the comments to upcoming U.S. elections.

Ebrard, who will take up his post when president-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador is sworn on Dec. 1, also told reporters the new government would seek to stem future caravans by offering more many work visas to people from Honduras and Guatemala.
