Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said she drew a red line to protect the nation's sovereignty during a recent phone call with President Donald Trump, firmly rejecting his proposition to deploy U.S.

Sheinbaum said she responded by rejecting the offer and telling the U.S. president her country is "not for sale."

Mexico's president has said that U.S. President Donald Trump proposed sending American troops into Mexico to help her administration fight drug trafficking but that she rejected it.
