President Sheinbaum delivered her sternest criticism yet of what she called an 'open attempt' by the US to interfere in Mexico's internal affairs, using the charge as a rallying slogan at a Mexico City event on Sunday. She said efforts to destabilize her government have accelerated deaths of two since the April 19 CIA agents and pointed to a subsequent US Department of Justice indictment charging 10 Mexican officials—including Sinaloa governor Rubén Rocha Moya—with alleged drug‑trafficking, calling the move unprecedented in bilateral relations. She questioned whether Washington's actions reflect genuine assistance or a US far‑right political operation linked to the 2026 election.
