Joint news conference held by Prime Minister Jean Chrétien and Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo Ponce de León on the occasion of a signing ceremony at the presidential residence of Los Pinos, in Mexico City. Included subjects are a bilateral meeting between Zedillo and Chrétien who could not come to the last scheduled visit due to the ice storm crisis, the threat by Russia that it might intervene militarily in Kosovo to support Serbia, the positive aspects of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) for Canada and Mexico since its signature, some concerns on human rights in Mexico, Chrétien’s memories of the assassination of politician Luis Donaldo Colosio during a previous visit to Mexico, and an affirmation by Chrétien that the journalists are just speculating when they ask about Paul Martin’s leadership campaign within the Liberal Party since Chrétien still has a Prime Minister mandate until 2001 and a clear mandate as chief of the Liberal Party. The bilateral agreements signed during this ceremony are a Canada-Mexico 1999 Declaration of Objectives and Action Plan, Amendments to the 1961 Canada-Mexico Air Transport Agreement, a Joint Statement on Health Cooperation, an Agreement on the Provision of Satellite Services, a Letter of Intent on Cooperation on Forest Fire Information Technology, an Aboriginal Trade Mission to Mexico, an Indigenous Studies and Education Program, an Alliance for Higher Education and Enterprise, a Fire Weather Monitoring System, and an Agreement on Low-Cost Housing. <35mn>
