Claudia Sheinbaum, President of Mexico, denied the existence of an agreement with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration concerning Project Portero. The DEA had announced a new initiative for collaboration against drug cartels. Sheinbaum called the DEA's statement unfounded, stating that the only recent interaction was a workshop in Texas with some members of the Mexican police. Tensions between Mexico and the U.S. have decreased recently, and Sheinbaum's administration has adopted a more aggressive stance against drug cartels, improving security relations with the United States.
President Claudia Sheinbaum stated there is no agreement with the DEA regarding the Project Portero operation. This was in response to a DEA announcement about collaboration against drug cartels.
Sheinbaum referred to the DEA's claims as unverified and emphasized that only a workshop involving Mexican police and U.S. officials has occurred, not a formal agreement.
The current tensions appear to be lessened compared to previous years under Sheinbaum's predecessor, as positive exchanges between the U.S. and Mexico have taken place recently.
The Sheinbaum administration's approach to drug cartels is more aggressive, aimed at improving security relations with the United States after years of tension.
