Mexico's new Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard met with US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Sunday for what he called a "friendly" meeting amid tensions over the migrant crisis at the border.

The talks came one day after Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador took office as Mexico's new president.

"Friendly conversation as a first approach towards a long standing understanding between Mexico and the USA," Ebrard said on Twitter.

"I thank him for his attitude and respect towards the new administration of President Lopez Obrador."
