President Barack Obama is seeking to refocus economic relations between
the U.S. and Mexico, even as fresh questions about security cooperation
threaten to cast a shadow over the president's visit to the southern
neighbor.Obama also will use his three-day trip, which begins Thursday and
includes a stop in Costa Rica, to highlight the immigration overhaul moving
through Capitol Hill, both for an audience in Latin America and for
those back home in the U.S.The president is scheduled to arrive Thursday
afternoon in Mexico City for meetings with President Enrique Pena Nieto
and members of Mexico's business community.Since taking office in December,
Pena Nieto has moved to end the widespread access it gave U.S.
security agencies helping fight drug trafficking and organized crime. The
changes mark a dramatic shift from the policies of Pena Nieto's predecessor,
Felipe Calderon, who was lauded by the U.S. for boosting cooperation between
the two countries as he led an aggressive attack on Mexico's drug
cartels.The White House has tried to downplay a potential rift, with officials
emphasizing Mexico has kept the U.S. informed about the changes. Obama on
Tuesday said he would wait to hear directly from his Mexican counterpart
before assessing the changes.Despite the intense focus on security issues,
Obama advisers say the president will try to show that the ties
between the two countries are broader than the drug wars that defined
the relationshi
ngs of the Group of Eight and
Group of 20. He is responsible for coordinating White House policy on
international trade, investments, energy, climate and development.Froman
served during President Bill Clinton's administration as chief of staff
to Treasury Secretary Robert E. Rubin. He also worked as deputy assistant
secretary for Eurasia and the Middle East and did a White House
stint similar to his current job under Obama.Before joining the Obama economic
and national security teams he worked in various capacities at Citigroup,
including managing partner of the Wall Street bank. He also has been
a senior fellow at the Council of Foreign Relations and a resident
fellow at the German Marshall Fund.Among the top ongoing trade issues are
negotiations over the Trans-Pacific partnership, an Asia-Pacific trading
bloc that is key to Obama's efforts to boost exports to Asia.
Members include the U.S., Australia, Canada, Malaysia, Mexico, Vietnam,
Chile, New Zealand, Brunei, Singapore and Peru. Last month, the U.S. approved
Japan's entry into negotiations on the trading bloc.
