MEXICO CITY, Aug. 20 (Xinhua) — Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Tuesday denied reports that her government had reached an agreement with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to launch a joint operation against drug cartels.
"There is no agreement with the DEA. The DEA issued a statement, but we do not know on what basis. Neither we nor other /Mexican/ security services have reached any agreement with the DEA," the president said at a morning press conference.
“It’s important to be clear on this issue,” she said, “because any joint communication is made jointly. We do not endorse information released by a U.S. government agency without consultation with the Mexican government.”
K. Sheinbaum also noted that the governments of the two countries have been working for several months on a security agreement, coordinated by the Mexican Foreign Ministry.
According to her, the agreement will be signed soon. It is based on sovereignty, mutual trust, territorial respect and coordination without subordination, the Mexican president added. –0–
