Sheinbaum Calls DEA Director's Statement 'Very Unfortunate'
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
President Claudia Sheinbaum criticized on Wednesday the statement made by Terry Cole, the director of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), claiming there is a 'deadly connection' between drug cartels and Mexican authorities. She described the comment as 'very unfortunate' and politically motivated. 'I find this statement very unfortunate for several reasons. First, it seems more like a political statement than one based on evidence. What he is saying has no basis. Second, I believe the DEA has a lot of work to do in the United States,' she stated during her daily press conference. Sheinbaum's remarks were in response to Cole's assertion that combating cartels and those facilitating their operations is the DEA's top priority, while also claiming that these criminal networks have ties to Mexican officials.
