Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum: Returning to the War on Drugs is not an option, it is not an option. First, because it is outside the framework of the law.
To all of those on the right who talk about the “Rule of Law” and who defend the war against the narcos, the War on Drugs is outside of the law, because as I said or have said on several occasions, it is permission to kill without any trial. And in Mexico, nobody – or very few agree with that. It is out of the framework of the law.
And second, it has done nothing more than to increase homicides in Mexico and the level of violence.
So, these so-called authoritarians – because they are authoritarians – are going towards fascism.
