Sheinbaum Accuses US of Interfering in Mexico’s Politics
Sheinbaum said the Justice Department’s request to extradite 10 Mexican officials is an unprecedented attempt to pressure Mexico, according to her.
- On Sunday, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum criticized foreign attempts to interfere in domestic politics during a Mexico City rally, describing the actions as unprecedented efforts to destabilize her government.
- Tensions escalated after the Justice Department indicted 10 Mexican officials, including Rocha Moya, on drug trafficking charges, marking the first time authorities sought extradition of a sitting, elected Mexican official.
- Rocha Moya and other indicted individuals testified before prosecutors last week, while two officials from Sinaloa remain in custody in the U.S. The Mexican Attorney General opened a parallel investigation.
- Urging supporters to oppose foreign pressure, Sheinbaum warned, "First they come for some, then for others, until the Department of Justice becomes the main decision-maker in Mexico."
- Linking instability to two CIA agents' deaths on April 19, Sheinbaum suggested sectors of the far right are positioning themselves ahead of 2026 elections to destabilize her government.
