Former Mexican President Vicente Fox criticized President Trump on Twitter after reports that he allowed his daughter, Ivanka, to sit in for him at meetings during last week’s G-20 summit.
In a tweet directed at Trump, Fox said the “G20 summit isn’t a ‘bring your child to work and let her attend high level meetings’ day.”

On Saturday, news reports said Ivanka Trump, who is a White House adviser, represented the White House at at least two meetings at the gathering of world leaders.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, however, defended Ivanka.
“Ivanka Trump belonged to the American delegation, so that is in line with what other delegations do. And it is known that she works at the White House and carries responsibility for certain initiatives,” Merkel told reporters on Saturday at the end of the event, according to the Associated Press.
