Jan 15 (Reuters) – The United States is intensifying pressure on Mexico to allow U.S. military forces to conduct joint operations to dismantle fentanyl labs inside the country, the New York Times reported on Thursday, citing U.S. officials.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said earlier this week that she ruled out a U.S. military intervention to combat drug cartels following a “good conversation” with President Donald Trump on security and drug trafficking.
