Former President of Mexico Vicente Fox recently visited Laredo to talk about many things.

Among them, border violence and he says both the U.S. and Mexico can work together to solve the problem, but he also says Mexico is taking the wrong approach.

“United States, reducing the consumer market. United States, reducing the flow of arms into Mexico, and Mexico fighting the criminals.”

Former President of Mexico Vicente Fox says there's many things that can be done to stop bloodshed along the border, but the one action he says should not be taken is exactly what Mexican officials have continued to do.

On Saturday, the Mexican government sent almost 900 soldiers to Tijuana to man checkpoints and set up anonymous complaint centers for residents.

Something Fox says shouldn't be happening at all.
