United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio has said that military attacks on alleged drug traffickers will “happen again”, brushing aside concerns over the legality of such attacks and the sovereignty of Latin American nations.
Speaking during a news conference in Mexico City on Wednesday, Rubio pledged continued security coordination with countries like Mexico, but suggested the US would not hesitate to take extreme measures on its own.
Mexico is pushing back against the idea of US military intervention inside its borders, after it emerged that President Donald Trump had directed an attack on a vessel he claimed was smuggling drugs a day earlier.

Al Jazeera’s John Holman reports from Mexico City.
