DISINFO: US preparing a military invasion of Mexico
SUMMARY
The recent operation in the United States against ‘el Mencho’, the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, exposes the likelihood of a US military invasion in Mexico, today destabilised on several fronts by George Soros. In the US, there are high military and civilian echelons, since long ago, invasion plans for Mexico, not to talk of ‘balkanisation’ processes promoted by several think tanks, in a country where megaspeculator George Soros already left his fingerprints.
RESPONSE
Conspiracy theory. No evidence is provided to support any of the multiple claims. This is part of several recurrent Russian disinformation narratives about constant US plots to undermine Latin American governments, especially Mexico, and also accusing billionaire George Soros of destabilising actions. You can see many examples in our database, such as alleged plans to designate drug cartels as terrorist organisations as a cover for military control of Mexico, the next country in Washington’s destabilisation list after Bolivia; US supposed attempts to promote secession of rich Mexican northern regions; Soros’ previous efforts to stir up protests in Mexico; or the existence of an alleged 'Operation Condor for the XXIst century'.
