Overview
- An opinion column in 24 Horas portrays the bilateral relationship as result‑focused, citing steady T‑MEC dynamics as evidence of pragmatic cooperation.
- Senator Ricardo Monreal describes the year as atypical but managed with dignity and firmness, reiterating Mexico’s stance of cooperation without accepting foreign military intervention.
- Monreal highlights tighter economic integration and migration trends, noting Mexico’s role as a leading buyer of U.S. goods and reduced outflows of Mexican migrants.
- He flags near‑term pressure points, including the first‑half‑2026 T‑MEC renegotiation and a U.S. strategy that more explicitly links trade with security cooperation, with U.S. midterms likely to politicize the agenda.
- A separate opinion piece alleges U.S. police or military presence in Mexico and predicts demands for high‑profile arrests, claims that are unconfirmed and presented as speculation.
