Sovereignty Concerns

President Claudia Sheinbaum vows to propose constitutional reforms to protect 's sovereignty following the designation of Mexican cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, fearing potential U.S. military intervention.

Sheinbaum emphasizes that Mexico will not tolerate any foreign interventions or actions that threaten its sovereignty, integrity, or independence, including U.S. military actions.

Legal and Diplomatic Responses

Sheinbaum's proposed reforms include imposing harsher penalties for arms trafficking and strengthening restrictions on foreign agents operating in Mexico, aiming to curb U.S. gun smuggling and protect national sovereignty.

Mexico plans to expand legal actions against U.S. gun manufacturers for negligence in selling weapons that end up with drug traffickers, potentially linking them to terrorist group complicity.
