Sheinbaum Forced to Rule Out US Military in Mexico
By Reuters | 18 Nov, 2025

A Trump statement of his willingness to send US troops into Mexico to stop drug traffickers forced Mexico's president to rule out such a scenario.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Tuesday ruled out possible U.S. military intervention in the Latin American country, saying Mexico did not want it in its territory. 

"It's not going to happen," Sheinbaum said in her daily morning press conference, a day after U.S. President Donald Trump said he supports aggressive action against drug cartels in Mexico and Colombia.
