No we aren't. Mexico and America are both brothers in Christ. Both of us have embraced the protestant tradition of not establishing a national church, but his holiness Pope Francis is the head of Ecuminical Catholic Church, the largest religious organization in Mexico and the United States.
We are also both children of the Roman Empire. Just like Russia and Ukraine can retrace their national origins, culture and laws to Grand Kyiv, America and Mexico draw ours back to Rome. Sure both Rome and Grand Kyiv are dead and buried, but they are our cultural progenitors.
Also, Spanish and English are essentially the same language. Just like Russian and Ukrainian. So many common words, and so many people on either side of the border speak both.
Our histories are also intertwined. We are both colonial progeny, both had independence wars in the late 18th century, and Mexico was at one point entirely Conquered by the United States. We could have kept the whole country but benevolently decided they could do their own thing. But only if we agreed!
After all, by Russian Logic Mexico is America an my Virginian Ass 3,000 miles away from Mexico City who can't speak Spanish is essentially a superior version of Mexican who don't have a real history, culture or language anyway. They are just discount Spaniards who have been english bitches for 300 years.
