  "account": "President Claudia Sheinbaum announced on Friday, October 9 that she would meet with the US Ambassador, Johnson, separately to discuss security and other issues. At a press conference, Sheinbaum clarified that the Thursday's meeting with Johnson focused on trade, not security, and did not include discussions about a police academy or a border dispute. The meeting would also involve Mexico's foreign secretary, Roberto Velasco. Sheinbaum emphasized that the meeting was with business leaders and that Johnson brought a delegation of US companies with operations in Mexico. The talks covered company requests, Mexico's revenue law, and the investment climate. Sheinbaum mentioned that the number of people crossing the border irregularly had fallen 98%, fentanyl seizures in the US had decreased 75%, and about 94 major drug bosses had been sent to the US. She also mentioned \"mirror operations\" on both sides of the border for the first time. Sheinbaum defended her stance on sovereignty, saying it was not just rhetoric but a principle. She accused the previous government of allowing US agencies to operate freely in Mexico. For US companies, no new border rules were announced, and trade talks continued.",
