Mexico Condemns U.S. Venezuela Operation as Sheinbaum Rules Out U.S. Intervention in Mexico

Mexico turns to multilateral channels to pursue a de‑escalatory regional response.

Overview

  • Mexico’s Foreign Ministry condemned the unilateral U.S. action in Venezuela as a breach of Article 2 of the UN Charter and urged the United Nations to act to reduce tensions.
  • President Claudia Sheinbaum said her government will coordinate with the Foreign Ministry on next steps for ties with Venezuela and is working with Latin American leaders on a joint statement.
  • Sheinbaum reaffirmed ongoing security cooperation with the United States under the principle of “collaboration, coordination, but not subordination.”
  • Responding to President Donald Trump’s remarks about cartels, Sheinbaum said Washington knows a U.S. military intervention in Mexico is not an option and called on the U.S. to curb gun trafficking.
  • Mexico’s Senate declared the U.S. incursion illegal, 24 allied governors backed the federal stance, and a Senate panel paused an authorization for 29 U.S. special‑operations personnel to enter Mexico for training.
