Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum rejected a U.S. military “invasion” of Mexico, following President Donald Trump’s decision to direct the Pentagon to target specific drug cartels.
“The United States is not going to come to Mexico with their military,” she said during a press conference on Friday after the New York Timesreported that Trump had quietly signed a directive ordering the Pentagon to use military force against cartels that have been designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations.
"We cooperate, we collaborate, but there will be no invasion. It's off the table, absolutely off the table," Sheinbaum continued, adding that the Mexican government was informed of the executive order. However, she insisted, "it had nothing to do with the participation of any military or any institution on our territory. There is no risk that they will invade our country."
