Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has publicly condemned statements made by Jeffrey Lichtman, the lawyer of Ovidio Guzmán, labeling them as "disrespectful" to the presidential office and denying any complicity between her government and criminal organizations. The government has filed a complaint in Mexico against Lichtman amid this controversy. Separately, Sheinbaum described as "unacceptable" the death of Mexican migrant Jaime Alanís García during an ICE raid in Ventura County, California, and indicated that the Mexican government is considering legal action in the United States regarding the incident. Additionally, marking one year since the capture and extradition of Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, Sheinbaum pledged to work toward pacifying the state of Sinaloa, where violence has increased following his arrest. She emphasized daily efforts to restore peace and security in the region. Furthermore, Sheinbaum lamented the homicide of Irma Hernández Cruz, a retired teacher and taxi driver in Veracruz, and expressed support for Governor Rocío Nahle's response to the case, highlighting swift actions by Veracruz's security cabinet. The president also reiterated a firm stance against engaging with narcotrafficking lawyers or traffickers themselves. These developments reflect ongoing challenges in Mexico related to organized crime, migration issues, and regional security.
