When questioned about what the US military said, López Obrador emphasized that Mexico is a sovereign and independent country.

It's a statement. We are not going to question anything, we are respectful of the free manifestation of ideas. Mexico is a free, independent, sovereign country. it must be increasingly known because sometimes it appears that we do not understand enough, we must send them telegrams warning them that Mexico is not a colony of any foreign country that Mexico is a free, independent sovereign country Mexico. That we are not a colony of Russia, nor of China, nor of the United States,” he reiterated.
