Mexico will never tolerate an invasion of its national sovereignty by the United States, President Claudia Sheinbaum warned Thursday after Washington designated Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations.

“This cannot be an opportunity for the U.S. to invade our sovereignty,” she said. “With Mexico it is collaboration and coordination, never subordination or interventionism, and even less invasion.”

On Wednesday, the Trump administration formally labeled eight cartels as terrorist groups. They include Mexico’s two main drug trafficking organizations, the Jalisco New Generation and Sinaloa cartels.

    Greenland
    Panama
    Gaza
    Canada
    Ukraine
    Mexico

    Did I forget any? I realize the U.S. has one of the biggest militaries in the world, but I think maybe he’s going to stretch them a bit thin?
