He has suggested on several occasions or has said, We offer you a United States military intervention in Mexico or whatever you need to combat criminal groups,' she explained. While she said she would accept collaboration and intelligence-sharing with the US military, she repeated her stance that no outside intervention would be allowed on Mexican soil."
"When a reporter asked if he was considering potentially launching strikes in Mexico, Trump answered in the affirmative. To stop drugs? It's OK with me. Whatever we have to do to stop drugs, Trump said. I looked at Mexico City over the weekend. This is some big problems over there. He then made a reference to the US bombing campaign that began on September 2."
Claudia Sheinbaum has firmly rejected United States military intervention on Mexican soil despite repeated suggestions from President Donald Trump. Sheinbaum said she communicated her position multiple times by telephone with Trump and with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. She offered cooperation in the form of collaboration and intelligence-sharing with the US military but insisted that no foreign intervention would be permitted. Trump publicly expressed willingness to use force against drug cartels, saying he would consider strikes to stop drug trafficking. The report notes at least 21 missile strikes against alleged drug-smuggling boats since September 2.
