  • AMLO Blames the U.S. for Violence in Sinaloa
  • This Comes After the Capture of the Sinaloa Cartel Leader
  • Also Criticizes the Expansion of the Border Wall

Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador criticized the United States on Wednesday.

He pointed to the U.S. government as responsible for the wave of violence that has rocked Sinaloa following the capture of Ismael «El Mayo» Zambada, one of the leaders of the Sinaloa Cartel.

During his morning press conference, AMLO condemned the agreements between the U.S. and members of drug trafficking organizations.

He stated that such actions have unleashed a spiral of violence in the region.

López Obrador also took the opportunity to criticize the ongoing expansion of the border wall, a measure that has been implemented across several U.S. administrations.

In his view, these actions are ineffective at stopping the flow of migrants.

Additionally, the president believes they symbolize a lack of understanding and cooperation between the two countries.

The Mexican president reiterated that his government has significantly reduced migrant flow at the border.

He highlighted that from December 2023 to September 2024, the numbers have dropped significantly.

However, he insisted that the fentanyl consumption crisis in the U.S. remains a serious issue that both countries must address with urgency.

In a more conciliatory tone, AMLO emphasized the importance of maintaining a respectful relationship with the U.S.

He stressed that, despite differences, it is essential to preserve neighborly ties and cooperation.

Nevertheless, his critical stance made it clear that he is not willing to overlook what he considers major mistakes by the neighboring country.

Finally, the Mexican president acknowledged that Sinaloa continues to face violence.

However, AMLO clarified that it is «not completely out of control» as some media outlets have suggested.

In his view, the government’s actions have been responsible, and they will continue to focus on improving security in the region, according to El Universal.
