President Donald Trump said US forces will “start now hitting land” in Mexico to fight drug cartels. This comes after months of US naval attacks on drug boats. Unsurprisingly, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is against this plan.
According to Euronews, Trump announced that American forces would begin ground operations in Mexico against drug cartels. The US has already been conducting naval strikes in the eastern Pacific and Caribbean for months. “We are going to start now hitting land with regard to the cartels. The cartels are running Mexico,” Trump said during an interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News. He did not share details about when these land attacks would happen or how big they would be.
