Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum pushed back Thursday against U.S. allegations linking Sinaloa Gov. Rubén Rocha Moya and other Mexican officials to the Sinaloa Cartel, saying Mexico will not protect anyone who committed a crime but will not accept accusations without clear evidence.
"My position as president regarding these events is truth, justice, and defense of sovereignty," Sheinbaum said during her morning news conference. She added that if Mexico's attorney general receives "conclusive or irrefutable evidence," authorities must proceed under Mexican law and jurisdiction.
