Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum warned in the framework of planned constitutional reforms that she warned a foreigner to the organized crime in the territory of Mexico without the permission of the local government. Mexico announced constitutional reforms in response to the US claim that Mexican drug cartels are terrorist organizations. According to the AFP report, TASR writes about it.
“Any alien performing activities that do not occur in cooperation, coordination and the National Security Act will be punished in the case of detention is punished by the strictest possible punishment,” Sheinbaum said at a press conference.
The Mexican President sent a congress that was controlled by her coalition, on Thursday two proposals for adjustments to the State Constitution after US President Donald Trump described eight Latin American cartels – six of them Mexico – for a threat.

According to the President, the planned constitutional reforms will protect the “integrity, independence and sovereignty of the nation”, including protection against the disruption of its territory on the ground, in the air or by the sea. She added that it has banned any unauthorized foreign participation or prosecution.
Although Sheinbaum promised cooperation with Washington, she warned on Thursday that her country would never tolerate “invasion” into her national sovereignty. It responded to the possible military action of the United States against Mexican cartels.
Trump signed a decree in January, stating that cartels “pose a greater threat to national security than the traditional organized crime. According to his advisor, billionaire Elon Musk, that is, Americans” are entitled to drones “against drones” against “against to these groups.
The Mexican President confirmed this week that US unmanned aircraft are spying on Mexican cartels in cooperation that has existed for years.
