On 18 November 2020, American authorities dropped charges against Cienfuegos, who had already been imprisoned in the US for over a month and agreed to send him back to Mexico on condition Mexican prosecutors do their own investigation of him.
Cienfuegos was cleared of all charges on 14 January 2021, and AMLO, the communist Mexican President, said that the accusations against him were politically motivated.

In 2006 the visiting Mexican Foreign Minister, Luis Ernesto Derbez, said in Beijing on Monday that China is Mexico's "strategic ally" instead of a "rival."
"We have a lot in common and share common interests in various aspects," he noted.
As Mexico prepares to deal with an unpredictable neighbor to the north, establishing greater ties with the Chinese military would be a logical step. That could take many forms but would not rule out basing rights for naval and air assets. If a further threat is perceived such an alliance could conceivably include stationing Chinese Army units in the northern areas. That could be done under the pretext of attempting to secure their border with the U.S. stemming illegal immigration and drug trafficking, just as Trump has asked Mexico to do.
