Back Off Musk! Mexico Toughens Constitutional Measures in Defense of Sovereignty

from Soberanía: The Mexican Politics Podcast · host Soberanía Podcast

Elon Musk wants drone strikes in Mexico. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has responded by proposing two reforms aimed at toughening the defense of sovereignty in the constitution and imposing the harshest penalties on foreigners involved in activities that infringe on Mexican sovereignty. Yet at the same time, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is softening his rhetoric, proposing cooperation instead.  In the latest episode of Soberanía, co-hosts José Luis Granados Ceja and Kurt Hackbarth break down what this all means for the US-Mexico relationship. Plus in Losers and Haters, we commemorate the one year anniversary of the NY Times clumsy attempt to interfere in the Mexican election by publishing unsubstantiated hearsay.
