Mexican president slams NATO policy in Ukraine

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s president has slammed NATO’s policy on the Russian invasion of Ukraine, calling it “immoral.” President Andrés Manuel López Obrador’s comments were the latest example of his ambiguous stance on the invasion. Mexico has voted to condemn the invasion, but refused to join in sanctions on Russia. López Obrador said Monday that the allies’ policy was equivalent to saying “I’ll supply the weapons, and you supply the dead.” In March, a half-dozen legislators from López Obrador’s Morena party helped create a congressional “Mexico-Russia Friendship Committee.” The Morena party has said “we respect the freedom of thought of our members” if they want to support Russia.
