Last month Donald Trump held talks with Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto, covering some of Trump's controversial immigration plans and the building of the wall.

As a part of his presidential bid, Trump has vowed to build a wall on the southern border of the U.S. In a press conference, Trump said, "We did discuss the wall. We didn't discuss payment of the wall."

In light of this, the newly appointed Undersecretary for North America, Paulo Carreno, is traveling to U.S. cities to dispel the negative image of Mexico and to start another conversation on trade, health and education.

Carreno spoke about his meeting with Gov. Mark Dayton and looks at the economic relations between Minnesota and Mexico.
