QUESTION: Sean, last week, the Foreign Minister of Mexico said that the Government of Mexico will reject any package approved by Congress with condition for the Merida Initiative.

MR. MCCORMACK: Right.

QUESTION: So my question is, is -- the Bush Administration has a Plan B just in case that the Mexican Government reject the package approved by Congress to help the -- fight the counternarcotics?

MR. MCCORMACK: Well, the whole -- the whole discussion about approval of budgets and supplementals is one that is currently ongoing not only up on the Hill, but between the Administration and the Congress. I can only say at this point, because the situation is very fluid with respect to the budget, that we have had very detailed discussions with the Mexican Government about this initiative and I think we have a good understanding of what this initiative is and what is acceptable to both sides, both to the United States and Mexico. And certainly, it is the intention of the Administration to abide by those understandings and those commitments that we have made to the Mexican Government. So at this point, we don't have -- yet have a resolution of the budget discussions up on the Hill.

QUESTION: But I just -- for a second, the facts that you brought against -- have a second plan, Plan B or something like that just in case --

QUESTION: You know, the U.S. Congress, that -- will have some conditions.

MR. MCCORMACK: Right. Plan B is to make Plan A work.
