Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum says she will propose reforms to the country’s constitution to protect Mexico’s sovereignty after U.S.

Summary

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced plans for constitutional reforms to protect Mexico’s sovereignty after the U.S. designated six Mexican cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.

The designation has raised concerns in Mexico about potential U.S. military intervention.

Sheinbaum vowed to prevent foreign interference in legal matters and proposed enshrining restrictions on foreign agents.

Additionally, she seeks harsher penalties for foreign gun traffickers. With a congressional majority, her Morena party is positioned to pass the reforms despite tensions with the U.S.
