Mexico’s president moved to shut down speculation of U.S. troops crossing the border, rejecting reported plans for military action against drug cartels and insisting cooperation will not come at the expense of national sovereignty.
BBC quoted President Claudia Sheinbaum, “The United States is not going to come to Mexico with the military.” Sheinbaum told reporters on Friday that “We co-operate, we collaborate, but there is not going to be an invasion. That is ruled out, absolutely ruled out.” She said any discussions with Washington have not included foreign soldiers operating on Mexican soil, BBC added.
