Mexican President Sheinbaum Denies Reports of US Troop Deployment in the Country
Mexico's President Sheinbaum has categorically rejected allegations that the United States is planning to send troops into Mexico to confront powerful drug trafficking organizations, stating that she has consistently refused such proposals from President Trump.
“This will not occur,” Sheinbaum declared during her regular press briefing on Tuesday. “We do not agree to any process of interference or external interference.”
Background on the Reports
The President's remarks follow a news story citing current and former American authorities that the US government has started planning for a mission to send American military personnel and intelligence officers into the neighboring nation.
The report suggested that although the operation was not immediate and a conclusive choice had been made, the early stages of training had already begun along with talks about the scope of the deployment.
Additionally, the account mentioned that American forces would function under the jurisdiction of the US intelligence community, and that officers from the CIA would also participate.
The Nation's Reaction
But Sheinbaum was adamant that her nation had “no information” about such a planned intervention, although she acknowledged that in phone calls with the US president, he had proposed to send military support and additional resources to confront organized crime.
“I’ve always said my gratitude, Mr. Trump. But absolutely not, Mexico is a independent, independent and autonomous country,” the President declared.
Historical Cooperation and Current Strains
Mexico and the US have historically worked together in addressing drug-trafficking groups, with the US at times dispatching intelligence, armed forces and Drug Enforcement Administration operatives to assist Mexico's initiatives to combat organized crime.
But the entry of US troops into Mexico to directly confront the cartels, especially without Mexico's consent, would be an unprecedented move that would likely damage an already tenuous bilateral relationship.
Latest Measures and Understandings
The Trump administration has designated addressing drug-trafficking groups a central pillar of its foreign policy: in February, the US classified six Mexican cartels as terrorist groups.
It has also initiated a multiple strikes against suspected narco vessels, most recently targeting ships in the eastern Pacific that resulted in the deaths of 14 alleged traffickers in late October.
Although Mexico rescued one of the survivors from the strike, Sheinbaum condemned the actions and instructed officials from her administration to discuss them with the American envoy to the nation.
On that day, Sheinbaum also noted that the country had reached a cooperation pact with the US that was discussed over an extended period.
“We will proceed within this framework of understanding, which has very clear principles … which respects our independence and our territoriality.”
The President's Position on Security Approach
The national leader has also seemed less enthusiastic on military-focused drug combat strategies than her preceding leaders: on the previous day, she ruled out any changes to the country’s security strategy despite the murder of a mayor in western Mexico.
“Some are calling for military action and armed conflict, as occurred with the war on drugs,” she commented. “That didn’t work.”
