Mexico: Sheinbaum Defends Sovereignty, US Ties, Security

Overview

President Claudia Sheinbaum continues to balance nationalist rhetoric with concrete security cooperation, maintaining that former Sinaloa governor Rubén Rocha Moya stays at his Culiacán home and is not under federal guard.

Sheinbaum has publicly demanded that the United States stop the illegal flow of firearms that fuels Mexican violence. In response, U.S. ambassador Ronald Johnson released data showing nearly 50,000 guns, 2.9 million cartridges and more than 10,000 arrests linked to trafficking under the previous administration, and noted a 6.9 % rise in weapons seizures at land ports in fiscal 2026. Sheinbaum estimates that about 75 % of the arms seized in Mexico originate from the United States.

The United States Justice Department has indicted ten current and former Mexican officials, including Rocha Moya. The Treasury has frozen over $65 million in assets tied to his family and seized two apartments. Sheinbaum has refused to arrest or extradite Rocha, creating a diplomatic standoff that heightens tension over drug‑corruption cooperation.

Rocha Moya reappeared publicly after a two‑month leave, prompting PAN leader Jorge Romero Herrera to demand full disclosure from the Fiscalía General de la República and clarification of the legal steps needed for his possible return. The debate is intensifying ahead of the 2027 gubernatorial elections, with internal Morena disputes over candidate selection adding further complexity.

A separate controversy emerged in Baja California, where Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda was linked to recordings of a conversation with U.S. FBI officials. She said the exchange was private and related to routine border‑security coordination, not a secret deal, but the episode adds to scrutiny of Mexican officials’ contacts with U.S. law‑enforcement agencies.

Binational law‑enforcement actions persist, with continued seizures of firearms and arrests tied to cartel supply lines, reflecting the intersecting domestic political battles, trans‑national drug networks and ongoing U.S.–Mexico security collaboration.
