Donald Trump announced that, following the attacks against maritime vessels in the Caribbean and Pacific, the United States will begin ground attacks against the drug cartels that control Mexico. In an interview with Fox News, Trump emphasized the sadness of the situation in Mexico and urged Mexican authorities, especially President Claudia Sheinbaum, to collaborate with Washington in combating drug trafficking. Trump also mentioned the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, accused of narco-terrorism, and highlighted the deployment of an American military device in the Caribbean to combat drug trafficking. The legality of these actions has been challenged by experts and international organizations, and the American administration has not presented clear evidence regarding the involvement of the attacked vessels in drug transport.
