"Coordination without subordination," said President Sheinbaum on relations with the United States

Coordination without subordination, said President Sheinbaum on Mexico's relationship with the United States
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum made it clear that if Donald Trump comes to power again, her administration will work on Mexico's relationship with the United States in a coordinated manner, but without subordination.

Listen to this note:

 

With just 8 days to go before the general elections in the United States, the president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, made it clear that, if Donald Trump comes to power again, work will be done with his administration in a coordinated manner, but without subordination.

"There will always be coordination, as we have said, coordination without subordination. Coordination, dialogue and joint work to be able to address, above all, the issues that concern both of us (countries), particularly the issue of fentanyl in the United States, it is a public health issue and, almost for humanitarian reasons, we must support," the president stressed in her morning press conference on Monday.

Recently, the Republican candidate for the presidency of the United States said that, if elected, he would confront the Mexican cartels, without specifying how he would do so.

In this regard, Sheinbaum stressed that it is important to ask, as former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador did at the time, "what is happening on the other side of the border?", because although she recognized that there is organized crime in Mexico, there is also a strategy.

"I think we have to ask ourselves, what happens on the other side of the border? I mean, because there is organized crime here, there is a strategy, but what happens on the other side of the border? How is fentanyl sold in the United States? What happens when there are drugs that cross over? Are there no cartels there? What happens with the financial resources from the sale of different drugs, particularly fentanyl?" he questioned.

In this regard, he pointed out that "it is here, but it is also there", since there are also many weapons that are illegally passed from the United States to Mexico, such as those used in recent clashes in Tecpan, Guerrero, where it was confirmed that the weapons used were high-caliber, coming from the United States.

"What we saw in the case of Tecpan, in Guerrero, were high-caliber weapons that come from there (the United States), so it is something that implies that there has to be coordination, joint work, it should always be like this, but with sovereignty, without subordination, but with high-level dialogues that lead us to advance in this coordination," he said.

On the other hand, in light of the actions of the United States to grant asylum to different migrants from various countries, President Claudia Sheinbaum highlighted that the arrival of immigrants at the border has decreased due to a comprehensive strategy and also repatriation.

"With this comprehensive strategy, which we have been following, the number of immigrants on the northern border has decreased significantly. There is work with the governments of Central and South America to prevent migration, and we will continue to insist on the core, which is addressing the causes," he explained.

He added that humanitarian assistance must be provided, and that the Welfare Shelters have provided very important follow-up in different areas, from legal to medical.

?There is humanitarian assistance, and we must continue to make progress in this regard, but to reduce migration? attention to the causes, that will always be our narrative, our orientation, whether President Trump or Vice President Harris arrives, that is our policy: that the root causes of migration must be addressed, because people do not migrate out of choice, there will be cases, but the vast majority migrate out of necessity.?
