“Where does opioid consumption come from in American society? From pharmaceuticals. So, what you can’t do is close your eyes to what’s happening in the United States. We will contribute, we will support in everything and every way we can, of course, with respect for our sovereignty, but we will collaborate,” Sheinbaum said 7 Jan. 2025 during her mañanera or daily briefing with the media.
