In a new act of military interference and interventionism , US President Donald Trump said on Thursday that his country is about to begin “ground” attacks in Mexican territory under the pretext of fighting drug cartels .

The US president’s announcement came days after the US was set to launch a military attack against Venezuela and kidnap President Nicolás Maduro along with First Lady Cilia Flores.

Hours after the US military operation against Venezuela, Donald Trump stated that Mexico, as well as Cuba and Colombia, could be Washington’s next targets .

Furthermore, he declared his intention to “do something about Mexico ,” asserting, without presenting any evidence, that drug cartels are in power in the country .

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has responded to Donald Trump’s interventionist statements by arguing that Mexico is a sovereign country and that her administration is committed to a peaceful solution .

In turn, Claudia Sheinbaum urged people to advocate for "collaboration, coordination, but not subordination . "

Since the beginning of his second term, Trump has maintained an interventionist and military agenda in the region under the argument of combating drug trafficking .
