Mexico Nixes Russia Sanctions To Keep 'Good Relations', Whines About RT Being 'Censored'
https://www.thedailybeast.com/mexicos-president-andres-manuel-lopez-obrador-declines-to-sanction-russia-over-ukraine-invasion
Mexico has declined to impose any economic sanctions on Russia in response to its invasion of Ukraine, the country’s president said in a news conference Tuesday.
“We are not going to take any sort of economic reprisal because we want to have good relations with all the governments in the world,” President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said. “We do not consider that it corresponds to us, and we think that the best thing to do is to promote dialogue to achieve peace.”
The leader also condemned the “censorship” of Russian state media from platforms like Google and Facebook, after the social networks’ companies announced they would take steps to limit state-backed channels like RT.com.
Mexico’s policy departs sharply from the stance taken by many other countries in response to the Ukraine invasion. Several hit Russia with fresh sanctions and injunctions over the weekend, including the European Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Switzerland, Australia, and Taiwan. The U.S., the E.U., the U.K., and Canada all banned a number of Russian banks from SWIFT on Saturday.

1. Good thinking Mexico. Maybe the US can take back Baja California. It's ours after all.

8. Mexico can make the bed it intends to sleep in.
If they prefer maintaining good relations with Russia, over the US, so be it. We should start pulling our factories and our jobs out and bringing them home to American workers. Everyone and every government has choices to make and they have to be willing to accept the consequences of their decisions.
Damned if this shit isn't turning DUmmies into conservatives. First they became defense hawks, now this?
Next they'll be calling for a border wall.
:rofl:

In typical DU fashion, brown people aren’t allowed any form of self-determination apart from leftist doctrine.
