Bomb drug labs in Mexico.
This crazy option was considered by Donald Trump in 2020, says in a book Mark Esper, then Minister of Defense in the United States.
The memoirs of the latter, entitled
A Sacred Oath
(A sacred oath), will be published on May 10.
According to extracts quoted by the
New York Times
, the American president estimated at the time that the United States could have claimed not to be at the origin of such a missile strike on Mexican soil, says the one who was minister Defense of Donald Trump between July 2019 and November 2020.
The Minister of Defense speechless in the face of Donald Trump
Former White House tenant reportedly asked twice if military could 'fire missiles at Mexico to destroy drug labs', writes Mark Esper, claiming Donald Trump's statements left him speechless.
Donald Trump had decided to dismiss Mark Esper in November 2020, a few days after the announcement of the results of the American presidential election.
Relations between the fiery septuagenarian president and his minister had been strained since the head of the Pentagon had publicly opposed a few months earlier the deployment of the army to suppress anti-racist demonstrations in the country.
In other excerpts from his memoirs, Mark Esper writes that on the sidelines of these demonstrations in June 2020, the president, very irritated, would have launched in the Oval Office: "You can't just shoot them?
Shoot them in the legs or something”.
