MEXICO CITY, Mexico - In his first foreign assignment, Secretary of State Colin Powell has travelled to Mexico to negotiate a new immigration and trade treaty with Mexican President Vicente Fox, who recently won re-election. Mr. Powell expressed confidence that Mexican violations of U.S. border law would be curtailed, partly through the introduction of a guest worker program.
