Outgoing Mexican President to Present Jared Kushner with Award
--------------------------------------------------------------

Outgoing Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto said Mexico will bestow
the country's highest honor for foreigners on Jared Kushner, President
Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, when Kushner arrives for the G20
talks. The move drew scorn from prominent Mexicans, including actor Gael
García Bernal, who called the decision to award the Aztec Eagle award
"tremendously shameful." Previous winners include Nelson Mandela and
Nobel Prize-winning novelist Gabriel García Márquez.
