Trump Team Weighs Mexico Invasion
A Rolling Stone report reveals discussions within Trump’s transition team regarding a potential “soft invasion” of Mexico, involving covert operations by American special forces to eliminate cartel leaders. This plan, echoing previous proposals by Trump and some congressional lawmakers, would proceed without Mexican government consent. The discussions center on the scope of this intervention, raising concerns about unilateral US action in Mexico. The plan draws parallels to past counter-terrorism operations, such as the raid that killed Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
