Initially it was the illegal migrants who ‘threaten national security’, later the ‘Liberation of the United States’ of unfair trade. Now the American head Donald Trump attacks Mexico’s neighbor for an 81-year-old water agreement and threatens sanctions and rates in sanctions.
“Mexico owes Texas 1.3 million hectares of water as part of the water contract of 1944, but unfortunately Mexico violates its contractual obligations,” Trump wrote about truth. This will have consequences, including rates and perhaps sanctions, until Mexico gives the American state of Texas the water that it owes. “Joe Biden didn’t make a finger crooked because of this. But that’s over now,” Trump continued.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum was confident. On Thursday she said she was sure that there would be an agreement in the water conflict with the United States. After Trump had responded to the subject, Sheinbaum explained to X that Mexico had sent a proposal to regulate water supplies to neighboring Texas on Wednesday.
What the water agreement arranges
At the same time, the president explained the residues with years of drought in the Rio Grande region. The agreement between the two countries regulates the common water use of the Two Rivers Rio Grande and Colorado via a network of interconnected dams and reservoirs. The amounts of water that Mexico and the United States have to deliver on the other side have been set for five years. During the current cycle that ends in October, the southern neighbor in the US, according to Media reports, delivered only 30 percent of the prescribed quantity.
