Message from Mexico & Spain to the Americas: “Say ‘no’ to socialism”

The heads of state of Mexico and Spain urged their Latin American counterparts to embrace open economies instead of increased nationalization and state control. “Latin America must integrate, the more the better for its people,” said Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero at a news conference in Madrid with Mexican President Felipe Calderon (image). Calderon- who is ending a 6-day tour of Europe - remarked today that “plurality and diversity” exists in Latin America despite the surge of leftist leaders.
