Let me put it this way: I am not happy with Mexico.
Donald Trump, president of the United States.
President Trump clarified that he is not saying he would order an attack, but he could because many lives are being lost.
“Would I do it? Probably. I would be personally proud to do it. I’m not saying I would do it, but I would be proud to do it because we would save millions of lives by doing it,” Trump said.
The American insisted that they are losing thousands of people to drugs for what he considers a war. “We know every route, we know the addresses of every drug trafficker. They are killing our people. It’s like a war,” he said.
Last November, President Claudia Sheinbaum assured that President Trump will not send troops to Mexico to combat the drug cartels, as she stated that there is an understanding regarding security and one of the principles is respect for Mexican sovereignty.
“We have an understanding on security that we worked on for many months with the United States government and what we agreed, when the Secretary of State was there, is that we are going to continue working within that framework of understanding that has very clear principles: respect for our sovereignty, our territoriality and collaboration and coordination without subordination of any of the states, so that is not going to happen,” he said.
The statement came after the NBC television network revealed that in its fight against drug trafficking, Donald Trump’s government would be considering military attacks against drug cartel facilities and leaders.
