Why many Mexicans welcome U.S. strikes on drug cartels despite sovereignty concerns

A significant portion of the Mexican population is showing support for U. S. military action against drug cartels, despite President Claudia Sheinbaum's opposition to foreign intervention. This sentiment stems from decades of violence and ineffective security measures that have led many to doubt the ability of the Mexican government to combat the cartels on its own.
