President Donald Trump said strikes in Mexico to disrupt drug trade are “okay with me,” telling reporters he is open to taking military action in the neighboring country as the U.S. continues to conduct deadly strikes against alleged drug boats off the coast of Venezuela.
Trump, who was asked if he would launch strikes in Mexico or deploy American troops to the country, said, “It’s okay with me, whatever we have to do to stop drugs.”
Trump said he has been speaking with Mexican leaders who “know how I stand,” saying drug lords are “killing our people, that’s like a war.”
