Claudia Sheinbaum reacts to Trump remarks, backs Supreme Court ABC case and funds Veracruz archaeology

Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum said her government will review whether federal welfare delegate Manuela Obrador Narváez, her cousin, committed an administrative breach after the official criticised U.S. President Donald Trump as a “misogynist tyrant.” Sheinbaum stressed the remarks do not reflect the position of the Mexican government and called for a clear separation between public duties and partisan activity.

Sheinbaum also urged Mexicans not to be swayed by Trump’s statements on security and drug‑trafficking, reaffirming national sovereignty and the continuity of domestic security operations.

Celebrating a Supreme Court ruling, Sheinbaum welcomed the decision that crimes linked to the 2009 ABC‑Guardería fire in Hermosillo, Sonora, will not prescribe, describing the verdict as historic and requesting a public explanation from the Attorney General on its legal implications.

In a separate address, Sheinbaum pledged the necessary budget for the restoration and study of a newly discovered pre‑Hispanic archaeological site in Coatepec, Veracruz, and noted that the environmental agency PROFEPA is investigating recent water‑contamination reports in the Papaloapan basin.
