12 states committed to immediately implementing six measures to break ties of complicity with israel’s campaign of devastation in Palestine at the conclusion of The Hague Group’s Emergency Conference. Mexico was not one of them.
This is getting old: Trump threatens Mexico with tarrifs for the fourth time while Americans sour on his immigration measures and Mexicans sour on the US; plus The Hague Group meeting against Gaza Genocide & a narco-lawyer tries to pick a fight with President Sheinbaum.
