Summary
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum dismissed reports of a potential U.S. “soft invasion” to combat cartels as “entirely a movie,” emphasizing Mexico’s sovereignty as a free, independent nation.
The Rolling Stone report claims Donald Trump’s incoming administration is considering covert military operations in Mexico, including airstrikes and assassinations of cartel leaders.
While Trump and key officials like Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio support such measures, experts warn they could backfire by boosting cartel recruitment, undermining Mexican sovereignty, and fostering cartel-Mexican authority collaboration.
Personally I think it’s high time Mexico accepts some help with their cartel problem. They’ve literally made zero progress after decades.
That’s up to Mexico to decide, gringo. Short your own shit first. Maybe end the stupidity of the war on drugs that caused the cartels to become economically powerful in the first place. Then let’s talk.
Wrong, the demand for the illegal drugs is in the USA and you need to cut that off.
Legalise drugs and you collapse the cartels
