Mexican official denies helping Trump write border wall speech
Source: The Hill
Mexico's top diplomat is denying a report that he helped President Trump draft a speech about U.S. relations with Mexico.
"I never thought I would use this phrase, but today I'm doing it: FAKE NEWS," Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Luis Videgaray tweeted on Thursday.
Videgaray was likely referred to a CBS News story on Thursday that claimed he met privately in the Oval Office with Trump and the president's special adviser Jared Kushner and helped draft a speech announcing Trump's border wall executive order.
A White House source also denied to CBS News that Videgaray played a role in drafting the speech, disputing Mexican officials' version of the events.
