López Obrador says proposals from US lawmakers in wake of killings of two Americans ‘an offense to the people of Mexico’
The Mexican president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, has rejected calls from some US lawmakers advocating military action in Mexico against drug cartels, describing the proposals as threats to Mexican sovereignty.
“We are not going to permit any foreign government to intervene in our territory, much less that a government’s armed forces intervene,” López Obrador said during a regular news conference on Thursday.
