Mexican President prepares to meet with Trump in Washington

Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador is set to make his first foreign trip this week. He’s traveling to Washington to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump, a politician who has repeatedly attacked Mexico.

Political opponents of both leaders call the visit a mere photo opportunity.

CGTN’s Franc Contreras explains what’s behind the trip.
