This move would enable a broader range of US action. Trump also claimed to have told Mexico that America was ready to go and clear “from the cartels.
As a response to this statement, Mexico's foreign minister said his country would not allow any <x0-seconds national sovereignty”.
Earlier this month, Mr. Trump pledged that “declared fierce war on drug cartels” following a murderous attack on American citizens in Mexico, writes the BBC, translates Periscopi.
Victims of three women and six children who were Mormons of dual, American and Mexican citizenship were killed during a shootout, traveling to lost areas of northern Mexico on November 4th.
Officials said this could be the case of the wrong identity, but the victims' relatives claimed the killers might have known who they were shooting at.
When a group is defined as a terrorist organisation in the United States, this causes any kind of aid they offer to people to be illegal.
This also prevents family members of members of organizations from joining the United States. /Periscope
