President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico has pushed back against U.S. investigations into Mexican politicians. Now some politicians want to cooperate.
The Justice Department this week instructed federal prosecutors to build criminal drug cases against Mexican officials using new terrorism statutes.
A vehicle carrying two U.S. Embassy staffers and two Mexican officials fell into a ravine, killing all four, according to the Chihuahua State Attorney General’s Office.
Mexican officials said 25 members of the National Guard were killed in six separate attacks and at least 73 people died overall, including security forces, suspected cartel members and others.
