President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador assured that Mexico is not “anyone’s pinata” after the criticism about immigration and drug trafficking made by the Republican Party candidates for the presidency of the United States during their first debate.
“The other day I was watching a debate of the pre-candidates and they talked about fentanyl, drugs and Mexico. Here we are going to be pending, every time there is an unfounded questioning of our country There will be an answer because we are not anyone’s pinata”, he warned.
The head of the Mexican executive thus referred to the speeches made by members of the Republican Party in the first debate last week for the presidential candidacy, without the presence of Donald Trump, and where Ron DeSantis, governor of Florida, said that in If he were president, he would send the United States special forces to Mexico from “day one” to combat the cartels.
“(They want) to go looking for drug traffickers, violating our sovereignty“A, something that we will never allow, but it is very comfortable for them, but it is very immoral, to say: the problem is in Mexico,” he commented.
Lopez Obrador also accused American politicians of not addressing the root causes of drug use or supporting young people to avoid addictions.
“Priorities must be changed, policies must be changed to address the causes and not be with the usual trite speechof Mexican drug traffickers and that the US Army must be used to almost invade Mexico,” he commented.
The Mexican president reiterated that he will continue to denounce in his morning conference American politicians who continue with their “anti-Mexican” and “anti-immigrant” proposals so that the more than 40 million Mexicans in the United States stop voting for them.
