Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responded to her U.S. counterpart Donald Trump's administration's designation of six Mexican drug cartels as "terrorist organizations," emphasizing that the country will continue fighting the criminal groups in "collaboration" with the United States, but will not tolerate foreign interference "and certainly never invasion."
The new classification, announced on Wednesday, prohibits Americans from providing "material support or resources" to these groups and paves the way for stricter law enforcement actions directed at them. DOGE head Elon Musk floated a possible implication of the designation. "That means they're eligible for drone strikes," he wrote.
