The foreign policy agenda of the Mexican Government, which has been neglected in the last seven years, once again becomes a central point of Mexico’s relationship with the United States: the bombings of alleged narcolanchas in nearby areas of Mexican influence, the harassment and imminent invasion of Venezuela and now American irritation over the Mexican vote in the UN against the supposed trade blockade of Cuba.
The Mexican response language has been, as was obvious to assume, tough and growing, but without viable ways for it to fulfill a function. Mexico’s old defensive nationalism does not operate with the hamstrung non-diplomatic style of President Donald Trump and his top foreign policy collaborators.
But the problem is not that there are no diplomatic effects, but that Mexico and the United States are in a foreign policy media scenario, in which the statements of the White House obviously have more weight than the responses of the National Palace.
The priority of the United States Government is not to define a new diplomatic relationship with Mexico, but to unilaterally impose American interests on the four fundamental issues of Trump’s administration: Monroist geopolitics, expulsion of migrants, use of tariffs with political criteria and not Foreign Trade and the obsession and priority of the White House to destroy – “disappear from the face of the earth” – the cartels Mexican drug traffickers in Mexico who produce drugs and smuggle them to the 50 states of the American Union.
For these reasons, the possibility of a general agreement to replace the previous High Level Dialogue between the two nations has been postponed and for this reason also President Trump’s refusal to meet with President Sheinbaum and Sheinbaum’s decision not to seek a personal meeting or state visit with Trump.
Cuba has already been introduced as a new headache in the T-MEC.

- All operational activity in the United States is currently decided but not launched, because it needs resources and there is currently no budget in the White House due to the lack of approval on Capitol Hill. But, intelligence analysts say, as soon as the budget is approved – and it will not take long – the invasion operation of Venezuela will begin.
