President Andrés Manuel López Obrador threatened on February 28, 2024, that if there was no respectful treatment from the United States and Canada towards Mexico, he would not meet with his counterparts from the U.S., Joseph Biden, and the Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, in April of the current year, in the Canadian province of Quebec, during the North American Leaders’ Summit, to discuss the results of the fight against fentanyl and weapons trafficking.

“We have always treated the authorities of Canada and the United States with respect. We do not deserve mistreatment, nor for the reputation of Mexico to be tarnished by their authorities, who, unlike before, were legally and legitimately elected without electoral fraud. So, just be aware,” said the head of the Mexican Federal Executive Power.

“If there is no respectful treatment, I will not participate in the trilateral summit. Besides, I only have seven months left and I do not like to travel much, I prefer to travel here to Palenque. Here is where I feel very good in terms of health and mood, there are very good vibes, and remember that life is not just rational, the mystical is also important,” said the politician from Tabasco during his conference, held at a station of the Maya Train located in Palenque, Chiapas.”

Speaking of unilateral measures sought to be imposed by the Canadian Prime Minister or those of migration and steel tariffs by the Biden Administration, the Mexican president stated that they were “nonsense” and asked both countries not to meddle in Mexico’s affairs.

“Migratory issue: Mexico is to blame, let’s build a wall and that will solve the problem, let’s militarize the border and that will solve the problem. And now Canada is doing the same, they are trying to take measures against Mexico, we regret this a lot,” said the Mexican President.

“We are in negotiations to reach an agreement that will allow us to control the immigration flows from Canada, as we have always done; and we have acted generously with them under the Government of Prime Minister Trudeau, but they were about to implement unilateral measures now, precisely during Mexico’s election,” accused Lopez Obrador.

“It’s the same with steel, now, what a coincidence! Except that before they find out, before they see the polls, I can’t get involved in that, but they should come to their senses. Will they be able to manipulate the Mexican people with those measures and dirty war tactics? No, no,” responded the Mexican head of the Federal Executive Power.

“In general, there is talk, for example, of closing the border. Imagine this: how long could we last with a closed border, when we are the main trading partners in the world? But these are empty words, because that is not sensible, it is not beneficial for the people of the United States, nor for us, nor for anyone. These are absurdities for electoral purposes, so all we are asking is for them to calm down, to not interfere,” insisted the politician from Tabasco, who also accused his adversaries of running smear campaigns in the US and Canada, with the aim of influencing Mexico’s electoral season.”

“We are indeed seeing this, we have noticed that conservatives in Mexico are engaging in what is known in the commercial world as ‘lobbying’ in the United States. Internationalists, political scientists, and conservative economists in Mexico are lobbying in the United States and Canada, we have this information,” the Mexican president denounced.

“And since there are elections and it seems like they are not doing well with the Mexican people, then they resort to tricks, manipulation, and slander. All of this from the New York Times and other media outlets, but they are also doing it in conservative organizations in the United States and Canada,” emphasized López Obrador.

”

“Besides from what is traditionally applied during campaigns in the United States: the desire to use Mexico as a scapegoat, blaming Mexico for all of their problems, as if Mexico were responsible for drug consumption in the United States,” insisted the Mexican president.

“Unfortunately, it causes a lot of harm to young people in the United States, but it’s just a matter of analyzing, with a little responsibility, the origin of the problem. How can they blame us? Oh, because of the trafficking? And isn’t there drug coming from Asia, doesn’t it enter through Canada? And aren’t drugs manufactured in the United States? And aren’t there drug trafficking gangs in the United States? But it’s very easy for them to say: the blame is on Mexico,” the Tabascan politician asserted.

The head of the Mexican Federal Executive Power requested Biden and Trudeau to understand that there was an opposition group in Mexico that wanted to regain power and invited them to refrain from assisting the “mafia of economic and political power.”

“Let’s wait for a moment, it’s great that you brought up this topic because I take this opportunity to respectfully address Prime Minister Trudeau and President Biden, and ask them to understand the current situation in Mexico, where a transformation is taking place. There is a reactionary group of corrupt individuals who used to hold power in Mexico and led the country into decline, and now they are trying to regain their position,” he stated.

“As they have a lot of money, they use everything to their advantage. I would like for President Biden and his advisors and Prime Minister Trudeau to be aware of the campaign “AMLOPresidenteNarco”. They have the means to know how these campaigns are created so that they do not participate in favor of this dirty war. They should refrain from participating and helping the mafia of economic and political power in our country, because it is immoral,” expressed [someone].

“[Alicia Isabel Adriana Bárcena Ibarra, head of the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Affairs] is over there, she was going to Washington, she’s in charge, but we have a good relationship with Prime Minister Trudeau, very good with President Biden, but there is a lot of scrutiny,” López Obrador concluded.
