Mexico’s week in review: Sheinbaum keeps ICE deaths abroad in focus as US steps up claims of cartel-government ties

Mexico's week saw heightened U.S.-Mexico tensions as DEA Administrator Terry Cole claimed the Mexican government and cartels are 'one and the same,' a claim rejected by Mexico's Security Cabinet. A cyclosporiasis outbreak linked to Mexican-sourced lettuce at Taco Bell locations also sparked a health advisory. Meanwhile, Mexico filed criminal complaints over ICE-related deaths of 17 Mexican nationals since Trump's second term began.
