Trump tells Mexican president he wants U.S. troops to fight drug cartels

The U.S. Marine Corps has deployed troops near the U.S.-Mexico border following Trump's push for increased military involvement in Mexico, despite Mexican leader Claudia Sheinbaum rejecting this offer. Sheinbaum emphasized Mexico's sovereignty, stating that U.S. troops can collaborate but cannot occupy Mexican territory. Meanwhile, Trump's administration has intensified efforts against cartels due to drug trafficking and fentanyl issues, shifting from a rule-of-law approach. This stance has strained relations, with Mexicans protesting through social media boycotts of American products, signaling a rise in nationalism.
