Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has thanked Mexico for its offer of relief for the victims of flooding caused by Hurricane Harvey.
Tillerson did not say whether the U.S. would be taking Mexico up on its offer of help, but he has said more on the matter than President Trump, who has not yet commented on Mexico’s offer.
Speaking ahead of a pre-planned meeting with Mexican Foreign Minister Luis Videgaray Caso, Tillerson said Mexico had “offered a wide range of assistance.”
He added in comments carried by The Washington Post: “It's very generous of Mexico to offer to help at this very, very challenging time for our citizens down in Texas.”
