Toyota Manufacturing Relocation / Ismael Zambada Case

Ismael Zambada Case. Minister of Foreign Affairs Roberto Velasco announced that the Federal Office of the Attorney General (FGR) will formally request information from the FBI regarding the agency's involvement in the July 2024 arrest of Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada. The diplomatic inquiry follows media disclosures indicating that the aircraft used in the extraction is being displayed at a US exhibition where the FBI claims credit for the operational execution, contradicting prior statements by former US Ambassador Ken Salazar.

US Sovereign Incursion. Minister of Interior Rosa Icela Rodríguez stated that if independent reports verifying the unauthorized operational intervention of the FBI on Mexican territory are confirmed, the action constitutes a direct violation of the Mexican Constitution and the National Security Law. She emphasized that the executive branch maintains no pacts with criminal organizations and called attention to the contradictory factual accounts provided by US diplomatic representatives.

Rocha Moya Monitoring Status. President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed that the licensed Governor of Sinaloa, Rubén Rocha, remains within Culiacan and is fully accessible to judicial authorities. The statement follows ongoing US investigations and allegations regarding potential institutional links between state officials and organized crime syndicates, with further legal steps deferred to FGR.

Toyota Manufacturing Relocation. President Sheinbaum announced that Toyota Motor Corporation will execute a phased relocation of its Tacoma model vehicle manufacturing line from its industrial plant in Tijuana to the United States. The operational restructuring of the automotive company's global footprint will be implemented via a gradual timeline scheduled for completion by 2030, with the federal government maintaining bilateral dialogue to safeguard domestic labor conditions.
