Mexican President Vicente Fox gestures during an economic roundtable at the "Los Pinos" presidential palace in Mexico City, June 24, 2002. Fox told foreign correspondents at the breakfast meeting he expected the economy to pick up in the second quarter of the year, to grow at a rate of three percent in the third quarter and four percent in the final three months of the year. "Everything is in hand although I cannot say that everything has been solved," said Fox, who has been accused by opposition politicians of failing to deliver on promises to root out rampant crime and corruption and to revive the economy.
