Like the rest of the world, they think it's same-old, same-old as far as negotiating with the United States. In other words, foreign country blusters and puffs up their cheeks, and the US (at the advice of the State Department) runs for the fainting couch begging for forgiveness.
Sorry, Meh-HEE-co politicians, those days are gone. Welcome to the new normal in dealing with the USA!
