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.
