Donald Trump and Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto held a joint press conference after a private meeting in Mexico City, Mexico on Wednesday.



"We did discuss the wall," Trump told reporters. "We didn't discuss payment of the wall. That will be for a later date. This was a very preliminary meeting. I think it was an excellent meeting. I think we are very well on our way."



"A lot of the things I said are very strong but we have to be strong," Trump said. "We have to say what's happening. There is crime, as you know. There is a lot of crime and there is a lot of problems. But I think together we'll solve those problems. I really believe that the president and I will solve those problems. We will get them solved."



"Illegal immigration is a problem for Mexico as well as us. Drugs are a tremendous problem for Mexico as well as us. I mean, it's not a one-way street. And we will work together and we will get those problems solved," the Republican nominee for president said.
