Mexico's President Sheinbaum pushes back on Trump's demands and threats

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has been responding to a series of demands and threats from President Donald Trump. She has publicly stated that allowing U.S. troops to operate in Mexico is 'not on the table' and denied a U.S. request to arrest Mexican politicians linked to drug trafficking.

Sheinbaum emphasized that Mexico's independence and sovereignty are non-negotiable, telling Trump that Mexico operates its own affairs and seeks only to 'strengthen coordination' with the United States, not subordination.
