Sheinbaum pointed out that “it doesn’t help” that Trump declares Mexican drug traffickers terrorists

by

The president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaumsaid this Friday that “it does not help” that the president of the United States, donald trumpdeclared the Mexican drug trafficking cartels terrorists and revealed that a team of Government lawyers is already analyzing the implications of this measure. “On this issue of classifying a criminal group as terrorist, we consider that it does not help, but rather that what helps would be coordination and joint collaboration, and we have a comprehensive strategy,” declared the president in her morning conference. The Mexican ruler questioned the usefulness of Trump’s orderwho on his first day in office set a two-week deadline for the US government to define which Mexican cartels, which he accuses of causing the death of between 250,000 and 300,000 Americans a year, will be considered terrorist groups. This could involve the use of US troops to combat cartels, covert operations in Mexico and the use of drones to bomb Mexican territory, as Trump has admitted in several media interviews. But Sheinbaum argued that there must be collaboration with “respect for sovereignty” to “reduce violence in Mexico, prevent arms trafficking from the United States to Mexico and at the same time prevent this drug (fentanyl) from reaching the United States.” “We are fighting these criminal groups and what we want is collaboration and coordination. Unilateral decisions do not help, what helps is collaboration,” he remarked. The president also explained that the Government has formed “a team of lawyers that is carrying out the analysis of the various implications that Trump’s order could have,” who has warned of 25% tariffs on Mexican products due to the flow of migrants and drugs. , particularly fentanyl. “So what we are doing is a legal analysis of what implications it would have for various organizations that are not linked (to drug trafficking) and that could, with this decision, generate an economic problem and, in any case, make a proposal to the United States” , he mentioned. The president insisted that The United States must also work to reduce drug use and arms trafficking to Mexico. “The issue of fentanyl consumption is not only a matter of criminal groups, it is also a matter of public health and attention to the causes. “Why is there fentanyl consumption in the United States and not here at those levels?” he questioned.

Republican Giménez threatens a military attack on Mexico similar to Afghanistan after ultimatum to end cartels

by

Extreme positions among Republicans are advancing by leaps and bounds, even for attacking a strategic ally and main trading partner like Mexico. The representative Carlos Giménez (Florida), of Cuban descent, threatened to support a United States military attack in Mexicosimilar to what happened in Afghanistan, after issuing an ultimatum that they must end the cartels in two weeks. “I would give Mexico two weeks to do the job, and if they can’t do it, then we have to do it,” Giménez said on Fox News. “We have to protect American citizens. Hey, Stuart, they’ve been killing hundreds of thousands of Americans, and they’re doing it knowingly. (…) they are poisoning us. So, yes, we have to go find them and we have to wipe them off the face of the Earth.” The presenter expressed that this was a radical position, but Giménez stated that the United States launched attacks in Afghanistan after the death of 3,000 Americans, in reference to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. “We were at war for 15 years and Al Qaeda killed 3,000 Americans,” he said. “These Mexican cartels (…) are killing hundreds of times more than that. And they are on the other side of the border. So yes, we have to go find them and wipe them off the face of the earth.” Giménez defended that President Donald Trump will order naming cartels as Transnational Terrorist Organizations (FTO, in English). “We are very happy that they are terrorists and have been designated terrorists,” he said. However, the appointment as FTO to cartels and other criminal organizationslike Tren de Aragua and MS-13, is not yet effective, as President Trump called for a framework to support the designation, to determine if it is viable and how it should be done. Mexico has expressed that it will not allow unilateral military attacks by the United States and will defend its territory and sovereignty, which is why it asked to maintain cooperation against organized crime. Even Secretary of State Marco Rubio said at his confirmation hearing that he preferred to increase cooperation with Mexico against cartels rather than appointing them FTO, due to the complications that would entail. Experts have pointed out that the national and international legal framework of FTOs is complex and can have an impact even on legally established companies. Giménez, however, does not talk about the criminal groups that distribute drugs in the United States, money laundering or arms trafficking from this country to Mexico that empower the cartels.
