Trump blasts Sheinbaum for rejecting offer to send U.S. troops into Mexico to fight cartels
- On April 16, 2025, President Donald Trump proposed deploying American military forces in Mexico to combat drug cartels, but Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum firmly declined the offer.
- Sheinbaum refused the offer citing Mexico's sovereignty and insisted cooperation must occur without deploying foreign troops on Mexican soil.
- Trump criticized Sheinbaum as too afraid of the cartels to act decisively and emphasized that the U.S. Military, including Tier One units, could swiftly neutralize cartel threats.
- He expressed that he would be "honored" to assist Mexico in eliminating the cartels, while referring to Sheinbaum as "a lovely woman" who is so intimidated by the cartels that it affects her judgment.
- The rejection maintains tensions and suggests continued cartel violence without U.S. Military intervention, while Sheinbaum supports collaborative efforts respecting national borders.
