Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

Water disputes with US should end as Mexico has agreed to a new commitment to adhere to the terms of the 1944 Water Treaty.

Yanks need their pools and hi-flow showers.

The vast majority of water use is thermoelectric power plants (e.g. gas, coal, nuclear) and agriculture.

WHEN dictator-Trump has used the Insurrection Act to eradicate all checks+balances, & purged the gov't of all who have been frustrating him,

THEN Trump's war on Mexico will be fully on.

Trump will insist that Mexico provide all that all agreements offered the US, while the US is actively bombing Mexico.

Putin & Trump .. once the tippingpoint is crossed, they will be the same in the way they work.

Prep, if you can.

3-fronts war:

  • northward, taking Alberta, annexing Canada, & using Greenland to snuff EU-lifeline
  • Civil War Part2: final extermination & confederate vengeance
  • southward, on Latin America, .. all of it.

Should last into the 2030's.

See it for what it actually is.

While tariffs mainly impact your own people, and fill the government's coffers, they also impact imports, i.e. Mexican exports in this case.

WRT the USA:

They have exploited and bled their own country dry, now they are turning to their neighbors. Soon the whole North American continent will look like the Midwest.
