Overview
- The government denounced the U.S. military operation that detained Nicolás Maduro as a breach of the UN Charter and Mexico’s Estrada Doctrine.
- President Claudia Sheinbaum said Latin American leaders have reached out and that a joint regional pronouncement is being prepared.
- Mexico urged the United Nations to act immediately to de‑escalate tensions and to facilitate a peaceful, lawful resolution.

- Answering President Trump’s claim that “the cartels run Mexico,” Sheinbaum emphasized security cooperation “without subordination,” ruled out any U.S. intervention in Mexico, and pressed Washington to curb arms trafficking.
