That's what I thought too, but I suppose if a country isn't doing much to stop bad things from going into another country, that could look bad for that country.  In the US, I think there's an impression that there are a lot of drugs that come into the US from Mexico, and perhaps Trump's thought is that if they can help prevent drugs from leaving their country, that would be more effective than just the US border patrol dealing with it.
