( CNN ) -- Mexico 's foreign minister says he 's summoning the U.S . Ambassador following fresh reports of spying . `` Shared security and responsibility between respectful neighbors can not be constructed by violating the law and violating trust , '' Mexican Foreign Minister Jose Antonio Meade said Tuesday . `` Mexico is convinced that the practice of espionage committed constitute a violation of norms , an abuse of the trust built between partnering countries and does not honor the historic friendship between our nations , '' he added . Speaking in Geneva , Meade said he would summon U.S . Ambassador Anthony Wayne upon his return to Mexico . His comments come days after Germany 's Der Spiegel news magazine published allegations that the U.S. National Security Agency `` systematically '' eavesdropped on the Mexican government and hacked the public e-mail account of former Mexican President Felipe Calderon . Der Spiegel named former NSA contractor Edward Snowden as the source of its information . On Sunday , Mexico 's government said such spying would be unacceptable , illegitimate and against the law . Meade demanded a swift investigation , noting that U.S. President Barack Obama had vowed to investigate when earlier allegations of spying surfaced in September . `` Mexico finally reiterates its confidence in the conviction of President Obama that international law is not an empty promise , '' Meade said . `` We are sure that the promise of an investigation made with Mexico is not either . '' Mexico will also conduct its own investigation , Interior Minister Miguel Angel Osorio Chong told reporters . The new allegations drew a sharp response from Calderon in a series of Twitter posts on Monday . `` More than personal , it is an assault on the institutions of the country , given that it was done when I was the president , '' Calderon said . `` I will be following the steps the Foreign Ministry takes to demand explanations from the United States and the corresponding account of responsibility . '' A senior U.S. State Department official told CNN the Mexican government reached out about the report and that the two governments will be discussing it via diplomatic channels . The NSA said it would not `` comment publicly on every specific alleged intelligence activity , and as a matter of policy we have made clear that the United States gathers foreign intelligence of the type gathered by all nations . U.S. spy chief says reports of NSA logging French phone calls are false . `` As the President said in his speech at the U.N. General Assembly , we 've begun to review the way that we gather intelligence , so that we properly balance the legitimate security concerns of our citizens and allies with the privacy concerns that all people share , '' the agency added . The statements were the latest sign of international fallout over apparent Snowden leaks . Mexico summoned Wayne in September after a report alleging the U.S. government had spied on Mexican President Enrique PeÃ±a Nieto during last year 's presidential campaign . Separately , the United States and Brazil agreed in September to postpone Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff 's state visit to Washington over reports the United States spied on her communications . That case of alleged NSA surveillance was also linked to apparent Snowden leaks . And on Monday , the U.S. ambassador to France met with French diplomats over allegations the NSA intercepted more than 70 million phone calls in the European nation over a 30-day period . Those allegations were reported by France 's Le Monde newspaper , citing documents leaked by Snowden . Snowden has admitted to leaking documents about U.S. surveillance programs and faces charges of espionage and theft of government property in the United States . He is living in Russia after receiving asylum . CNN has not independently verified the reports citing leaked documents by Snowden . CNN 's Dana Ford contributed to this report .
Mexico calls reported U.S. spying an abuse of trust . The Mexican government has said it will not allow the United States to use its territory for intelligence gathering and that any such activity would be considered a violation of international law. His comments follow Der Spiegel report on fresh allegations of U.S. spying . It 's the latest sign of international fallout over documents leaked by Edward Snowden .
