After months of friction over the presence of U.S. intelligence personnel on Mexican soil, President Claudia Sheinbaum and the CIA found themselves on the same side of an explosive fight: both rejected a CNN report alleging that U.S. operatives had taken part in deadly covert operations against cartel targets inside Mexico.

Washington's threats prompted a response from Sheinbaum, who earlier this week said Mexico has intensified efforts to combat drug cartels and categorically rejected any foreign intervention on Mexican soil.

President Claudia Sheinbaum sent a letter to Mexico's governors Friday reminding them that any security cooperation with foreign agencies must go through federal channels, a move that turns the deaths of two reported CIA officers in Chihuahua into a test of presidential authority, sovereignty and the limits of U.S.-Mexico anti-cartel cooperation.
