Obama backs Mexico's war on drugs

US President Barack Obama has given "strong support" to Mexico's war on drugs cartels, at the start of a summit in Guadalajara.
At talks with Mexico's President Felipe Calderon, he also raised the issues of swine flu and a ban on Mexican lorries entering the United States.
Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper joined the two leaders for dinner.
On Monday, a three-way summit will be held, likely to focus on problems caused by the economic recession.
It will be President Barack Obama's first attendance at the annual meeting of North American leaders.
