MEXICO CITY - The Mexican government on Wednesday rejected media reports that the United States has pressured Mexico to investigate, prosecute or extradite officials allegedly tied to organized crime.

"It is absolutely false that in meetings with Senator Marco Rubio or officials from the State Department, any request was made to investigate, prosecute or extradite any Mexican official," Mexico's Foreign Ministry said in a statement posted on the social platform X.
