\u00a0The politician leading the race to be Mexico\u2019s next leader said on Sunday he wants to broker a deal with U.S. President Donald Trump to stem illegal immigration through jobs and development rather than a border wall.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the favourite to win Mexico\u2019s July 1 presidential election, said he hoped to craft a deal with Trump similar to the \u201cAlliance for Progress\u201d, an aid plan launched in 1961 by then-president John F. Kennedy to help Latin America.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur dream, which we\u2019ll achieve regardless of whether Trump accepts or not, is that the Mexican can work and be happy where he was born,\u201d Lopez Obrador said during a campaign event in the southern border city of Tapachula.<\/p>\n

Aides to Lopez Obrador, a leftist former mayor of Mexico City, say he thinks he can find common ground with Trump over migration, which has fuelled tensions between the two countries.<\/p>\n

For months the Mexican candidate has been working on his plan to improve wages and create better conditions for Mexican workers. It must also raise living standards in Central America and create more job opportunities there, said Lopez Obrador, 64.<\/p>\n

Sceptics, however, doubt Lopez Obrador could persuade Trump to abandon his proposed border wall, a signature campaign pledge that fires up his political base, or that Trump would embrace a programme to create employment in Mexico, which the U.S. president accuses of stealing American jobs.<\/p>\n

Part of Lopez Obrador\u2019s pitch, aides say, rests on his willingness to say the buck stops with him.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The candidate has said repeatedly that Mexico must do more to solve its own problems, including fighting corruption and violent crime, a view that Trump shares.<\/div>\n

\u201cAndres\u2019 point is that it\u2019s (Mexico\u2019s) fault, it\u2019s not the fault of the United States,\u201d said campaign aide Marcelo Ebrard, who succeeded Lopez Obrador as mayor, serving from 2006-2012.<\/p>\n

Lopez Obrador\u2019s advisers say his plan has progressed on the back of months of study of the U.S. president. The candidate said he would detail his proposal in due course and that he also wanted Canada to be part of it.<\/p>\n

Lopez Obrador has already talked of creating a special zone along Mexico\u2019s northern border with lower taxes and higher wages. His advisers told Reuters that measures could also be directed at the southern border and elsewhere to contain migration.<\/p>\n

If elected, Lopez Obrador would take office on Dec. 1. Aides say he would push for a development deal with Trump soon after assuming power.<\/p>\n

Kennedy\u2019s 1961 \u201cAlliance for Progress\u201d was a multi-billion dollar programme that set out to improve democracy and living standards in Latin America. It had limited success.<\/p>\n

It is unclear how Lopez Obrador\u2019s plan would be funded or win over the current U.S. president, who not only insists Mexico will pay for his border wall, but is also threatening to quit the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) because of U.S. jobs moving to Mexico.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrump will not spend a dime of taxpayer money in any form or programme for aid or support in Mexico,\u201d said Arturo Sarukhan, a former Mexican ambassador in Washington.<\/p>\n

By engaging with the United States on migration, Lopez Obrador also risks exposing himself to attacks by political opponents that he is appeasing Trump, who is deeply unpopular in Mexico.<\/p>\n

Still, if Lopez Obrador can forge a personal relationship with Trump from the outset, and secures a strong electoral mandate, he might have more success, Sarukhan said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are signals of strength that I think Trump will identify,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The U.S. government would not speculate on the outcome of Mexico\u2019s election, a State Department spokeswoman said.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cWe look forward to working with whomever the people of Mexico choose,\u201d she said.<\/div>\n

MEXICO FIRST<\/h3>\n

An election win by Lopez Obrador would put already-strained U.S.-Mexico relations into the hands of two mavericks with often directly opposing nationalist visions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Austere in his habits, the Mexican candidate is in some ways quite unlike the flamboyant billionaire.<\/p>\n

Still, adversaries frequently compare Lopez Obrador to Trump. Like the American, he can be thin-skinned, tends to belittle rivals and has often clashed with the media.<\/p>\n

Some political observers worry the two could prove an explosive combination.<\/p>\n

Within weeks of Trump taking office, Lopez Obrador toured several U.S. cities, pledging his support to Mexican immigrants, whom Trump had described as \u201crapists\u201d in his election campaign. Lopez Obrador had strong words of his own, likening Trump\u2019s rhetoric about Mexicans to Hitler\u2019s vilification of Jews.<\/p>\n

However, he has since softened his tone and stresses he wants to pursue friendly, respectful ties with Trump, even if his policy will always be \u201cMexico First\u201d, said Hector Vasconcelos, Lopez Obrador\u2019s pick for foreign minister.<\/p>\n

Supporters contend that Lopez Obrador, a Mexican history buff who does not speak English, could be the perfect foil for Trump, because of his Mexico-centric vision.<\/p>\n

\u201cNobody in their right mind could imagine him selling out to Trump,\u201d said John Ackerman, a constitutional law expert at the National Autonomous University of Mexico.<\/p>\n

Reconciling their differences would be a challenge.<\/p>\n

Trump has pursued a renegotiation of NAFTA to repatriate jobs from Mexico and limit Mexican exports to the United States.<\/p>\n

Lopez Obrador, meanwhile, wants Mexico to be self-sufficient in foodstuffs and gasoline, two major U.S. exports to Mexico. He has also signalled a more independent stance on security.<\/p>\n

The potential perils of negotiating with Trump were illustrated on Saturday at the G7 summit in Canada. Just hours after agreeing to a joint statement on several policy issues with the United States\u2019 closest allies, Trump changed his mind.<\/p>\n

He then blasted Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as \u201cdishonest\u201d and \u201cweak\u201d on Twitter and threatened to escalate a trade dispute with Canada, stunning assembled diplomats.<\/div>\n

Still, Tatiana Clouthier, another senior aide on the Lopez Obrador campaign, said he would be far more assertive with Trump than the outgoing Mexican president, Enrique Pena Nieto, who is limited by law to a single term.<\/p>\n

Pena Nieto was ridiculed in the media for inviting then-candidate Trump to Mexico City in 2016 and failing to defuse tensions over the wall. And his attempts to build bridges with Washington have not curbed Trump\u2019s enthusiasm for lashing out at Mexico, or ended uncertainty over the future of NAFTA.<\/p>\n

Lopez Obrador would drive a hard bargain in talks with Trump on issues like security, his aides say. But he has no illusions about the test that Trump represents, said Lorenzo Meyer, a Mexican historian and longtime friend of Lopez Obrador.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe knows he\u2019s got a problem there,\u201d Meyer said. \u201cThat they\u2019ll need to handle (Trump) very carefully.\u201d<\/p>\n
