Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Tuesday ruled out possible U.S. military intervention in the Latin American country, saying Mexico did not want it in its territory.
"It's not going to happen," Sheinbaum said in her daily morning press conference, a day after U.S. President Donald Trump said he supports aggressive action against drug cartels in Mexico and Colombia.
