Really? hahaha they can't be serious, the EU parliament, that just banned RT and Sputnik told AMLO to be kinder to the media? Though I daresay they're deadly serious, you cannot make this stuff up.
And this is one of those things where AMLO looses a few points in my book, his ideological stance tends to get the best of him sometimes, Lula is not the same Lula that was there before Dilma Rousseff. But I suppose he's also being financially strategic, so maybe I am overreacting, I will let him keep his points :P

Maybe, but for now, is better to have a President like him, than the past presidents...and the ones that complaint more are the ones who are Very Very Very wealthy under the protection of the last 65 years.. régimen..and the ones who work with the USA goverments, .. .and sold their own country...
US accuses Russian military deployment in Mexico for espionage purposes
politica.expansion.mx
Well, this news was released by the newspaper Reforma (whose financing comes from businessmen linked to the elite opposed to the President) this Tuesday, March 22, one day after President Obrador inaugurated the new Mexico City international airport (AIFA) which was one of his campaign promises.
Some political analysts interpreted what General Van Hereck said as a warning. Because under the pretext of combating Russian espionage, the United States can resort to US militarization in Mexican territory.
In fact, the journalist known as Julio Astillero warned of a possible attack (false flag?) on the AIFA as a means of ending the popularity of President Obrador. The opposition wants the 4T project to fail at all costs and by any means.

Another tidbit ramping up the weirdness, the US has stated that there are "Russian spies" in Mexican territory (!!). Of course, this is just propaganda by any means possible and intended to gain political points by appearing "tough" on anyone who fraternizes with the Russians, as there is a "friendship-committee" between MX & RU.

Such a mirror image, US projecting its own image onto Mexico, as if what the US / Nato did with Ukraine is an issue for US in Mexico. Now they just have to find biolabs collecting American DNA all along the Mexico/US border.US accuses Russian military deployment in Mexico for espionage purposes

(I couldn't help writing this silly comment, I think it is sarcasm, primarily. And yet look at the possibilities the US has for dragging Mexico into trouble, the Mexico that wouldn't condemn Russia.)

US wants the mexican lithium for the energy transition to the use of electric cars.
In Sonora there is the world's largest deposit of lithium in hard rock according to Mining Technology, a mineral that some consider to be "the new oil".
According to the Association of Mining Engineers, Metallurgists and Geologists of Mexico:
www.revistageomimet.mx
At the end of 2019, the Mexican Government confirmed the existence of the deposit and it was reported that an exploitation project was underway by a Canadian company (Bacanora Lithium) and a Chinese company (Ganfeng Lithium). Later Senators from the Morena party, included in 2020 a proposal to nationalize lithium as a strategic resource, which would imply a constitutional reform and changes in the current Mining Law.
At 1,400 kilometers from Sonora, on the other side of the border, rises Tesla Motors, the largest electric car factory in the world. And what the town has under its feet is the source of energy needed to manufacture its batteries.
The geopolitical analyst, Alfredo Jalife-Rahme, warned that Mexico is in danger of balkanization, as it is the scene of a dispute over control of lithium reserves. He said:
Jalife-Rahme has mentioned on other occasions that by not yielding Mexico to the intentions of the United States, the nation of stars and stripes could use the 'narco' phenomenon as bait to intervene in Sonora, but always with the real purpose. to fully control the ore deposit.

Before all this energy reform, Trump tried to send military “help” a couple of times but was turned down. In my opinion he was trying to get points on his re-election campaign but who knows what the real intentions were.
There’s also a clause on the T-MEC or UMCA agreement that says México is free to set its own energy policies. That’s why AMLO is so confident but guess what country is known for breaking international treaties?…That’s right, the good’ol US of A.
President Obrador loses a battle. The electrical reform is not approved in Mexico and the battle for mexican lithium begins.
This reform sought to modify articles 25, 27 and 28 of the Constitution, in addition to adding a series of transitory articles. The objective was to repeal the 2013 energy reform, proposed by former President Enrique Peña Nieto.
The 2013 reform does not benefit the country or mexicans, since it grants greater benefits to private and foreign companies.
The Reform proposed by President Obrador intended to favor state power generation plants to be self-sufficient and, at the same time, cut energy sales from private projects that come from abroad, that is, clean energy would be limited when trying to dispatch electricity to the country.
This, as mentioned before, conflicts with the green energy policy that the US government leads in the West.
On April 17, after failing to reach a qualified majority, the plenary session of the Chamber of Deputies rejected the electrical reform of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
Obrador's Electrical Reform required a qualified majority, that is, three quarters of those attending the plenary session, so that Morena and his allies, the PT and the PVEM, required votes from the opposition.
Despite the victory of the opposition, political analysts consider that it was achieved without taking into account the political cost, that the opposition (PRI, PAN, PRD and MC parties) will have to face in the next elections.
Immediately after the reform was rejected, the propaganda machinery of the 4T began to work. President Obrador spoke of exposing the deputies who rejected the reform and media related to the regime began to speak of "traitors to the Homeland" "Expropriation" and "nationalization of lithium".
Given the interests of businessmen and the US Government on lithium, talking about "Nationalization" and "Expropriation" is dangerous
Geopolitical analyst Alfredo Jalife said via Facebook that
However, President Obrador published the reforms to the Mining Law approved by the Congress of the Union and by which the exploitation, benefit and use of lithium is nationalized.
"It is recognized that lithium is the heritage of the nation and its exploration, exploitation, benefit and use is reserved in favor of the people of Mexico," highlighted the decree published by the federal Executive and that entered into force as of this Thursday.
The newspaper "El Financiero" published that the mining reform that nationalizes lithium "could violate the Treaty between Mexico, the United States and Canada (T-MEC or USMCA)."

Days before the presentation of Mexican Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard at the UN to present a proposal for dialogue and peace in Ukraine, the German president visited Mexico. The visit caused surprise but is understandable given Germany's urgency to find a substitute source for Russian gas before the onset of winter.
Oh wait... Mexico burns its natural gas instead of using it and imports a lot from Texas.
Trade, human rights and the supply of liquefied natural gas (LNG) were among the topics discussed at a meeting between President López Obrador and German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier in Mexico City on Tuesday.
President Steinmeier, Germany’s head of state and a former vice-chancellor of that country, is in Mexico with his wife for a three-day state visit.
López Obrador said on social media that his meeting with the German president, his wife Elke Büdenbender and representatives from the German public and private sector was “very important.”
“We discussed issues of economy, trade, human rights, justice and peace,” he wrote.
His tweet came hours after he described Germany as an “important partner” and longstanding investor in Mexico during remarks at his regular morning press conference.
The meeting between the two heads of state came after a formal welcoming ceremony at the National Palace, the seat of executive power and López Obrador’s residence. Steinmeier, whose role is more ceremonial than political, was scheduled to visit Mexico over two years ago, but his trip was postponed due to the pandemic. His visit is the first to Mexico by a German president since 2011.
After meeting with López Obrador, Steinmeier told reporters that “the Mexican president offered to step up cooperation on liquid gas,” but didn’t offer additional details.
Germany and other European countries currently face a LNG supply squeeze as Russia has progressively cut off access to the fuel via pipeline. LNG can be transported in tanker ships, but Mexico doesn’t currently export the gas commercially, the news agency Reuters reported. It was unclear whether Mexico planned to begin shipping LNG to Germany, although Steinmeier seemed to suggest that it would.
In addition to meeting with López Obrador, the German president addressed Mexico’s Senate, where he noted that his trip to Mexico had been postponed and acknowledged that the world has changed due to the pandemic.

Meanwhile, the lack of storage infrastructure and maintenance of compression equipment, among other causes, means that the gas sent to the atmosphere (burn) ranges between 10 and 20 percent of the volume produced, according to reports from Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex).
In view of this scenario, the board of directors of CFE Internacional, a subsidiary of the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) proposed a storage program to minimize the negative impacts of abrupt movements in energy prices.
During the last administration, the Mexican Petroleum Institute (IMP) presented to the National Natural Gas Control Center (Cenegas) a study regarding the location of nine sites in depleted fields as prospects for subway natural gas storage.
In September 2020, according to the most recent official figures from the Energy Information System (SIE), domestic natural gas production was 2,485 million 811 thousand cubic feet per day.
Imports, mainly from Texas, reached 5,639 million 936 thousand cubic feet per day.
Mexico resorts to natural gas imports because it is very close to the Waha, Texas market, where the cheapest gas is traded, at a price that represents half of what it costs to extract gas from the Burgos Basin, located between Coahuila and Nuevo León. The gas provinces in Mexico are Sabinas, Burro-Picachos; Burgos; Tampico-Misantla; Veracruz; Southeast and Deep Gulf of Mexico.
During past administrations in Mexico, exploration and production activities have declined, resulting in lower energy production.
Official reports indicate that natural gas production averaged 6,337 million cubic feet in 2010, while 1,459 million cubic feet per day were imported.
Pemex's gas burning increased 69.9 percent between January and September 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, the oil company's financial reports for the third quarter of 2020 reveal.
The growth in gas burning is explained by the high nitrogen content in fields in the Northeast Marine region, as well as failures in the nitrogen elimination plant, maintenance to compression equipment, rejections from gas processing centers and failures in compression equipment.

Tied to imports, Mexico burns one-fifth of the gas it produces
Given the drop in exploration and extraction activities in the previous administration (six-year term of Paña Nieto 2012-2018), natural gas imports represent up to seven out of every 10 cubic meters consumed in Mexico, mainly by the electricity, oil, industrial, residential, services and motor transport sectors, according to official statistics.Meanwhile, the lack of storage infrastructure and maintenance of compression equipment, among other causes, means that the gas sent to the atmosphere (burn) ranges between 10 and 20 percent of the volume produced, according to reports from Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex).

I assume that the kidnapping of four U.S. citizens is already well known.
4 US citizens kidnapped in Mexico identified
The four Americans kidnapped in Mexico on Friday have been identified, as the FBI, federal partners and local authorities continue to investigate.
The American citizens crossed into Matamoros, in the northeastern state of Tamaulipas just south of Brownsville, Texas, in a white minivan with North Carolina plates on Friday, the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City said said Sunday.
"Shortly after crossing into Mexico, unidentified gunmen shot the passengers of the vehicle. The gunmen herded the four U.S. citizens into another vehicle and fled the scene with them," according to the embassy.
The four Americans have been identified as Latavia "Tay" McGee, Shaeed Woodard, Zindell Brown and Eric James Williams.
abcnews.go.com
After two of the kidnap victims were found alive and another two were killed a Republican Senator suggested that the United States will send an invading military force in Mexico... no, sorry, a military force to fight the drug cartels.
“I would put Mexico on notice,” Graham said. “If you continue to give safe haven to drug dealers, then you are an enemy of the United States.”
Graham added he would “introduce legislation to make certain Mexican drug cartels foreign terrorist organizations under U.S. law and set the stage to use military force if necessary.”
“I would tell the Mexican government if you don’t clean up your act, we’re going to clean it up for you,” the senator said.

Shaeed Woodard, who was killed in the horror, had lengthy drug charge sheet with records showing he pleaded guilty to drugs manufacture or possession in September 2015 and was sentenced to 100 days in January 2016 – which was taken as time already served.
Zindell Brown, who was also killed, was accused of domestic violence in the first degree in July 2019, which was determined as Nolle Pro, which means abandoned.

What steps were they taking? Did the transaction go wrong? Did they try to be clever?
The overbearing comments of the U.S. political class have upset the people of Mexico. President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador addressed the issue by saying that Mexico is "neither a protectorate of the United States nor a colony of the United States. Mexico is a free, independent, sovereign country. We do not take orders from anyone."
"I just want to tell them that either they change their treatment of Mexico, or starting today we are going to start an information campaign in the United States so that all Mexicans, our compatriots, know about this aggression on the part of the Republicans against Mexico. And if they continue with this attitude we will insist: not one Mexican or Hispanic vote" for the Republicans.
Meanwhile, the military complex wants to open another front in South America.

What a tangled mess! Lindsey Graham is talking out his butt as usual and its very doubtful his proposal will go anywhere. It's understandable the Mexican people would be upset by this but the president telling people not to vote Republican plays right into what Graham would like to see being a Rino. And is Mexico as sovereign as he claims, I'm not to sure about that. It's very doubtful anything will be done about the cartels as well. All Hot Air!

Puma, I think your thread should be called Mexico vs. the emporium, because an emporium is everything related to business, marketing, money, money, money, and that's what the United States is.
In fact I would like a moderator to help me change the name of the thread to "the Situation in Mexico". This because the Cs mentioned recently that Mexico is in alliance with US government. So Mexico is not against the Empire.
