MEXICO CITY–citing Russia’s annexation of Ukraine and the passive response of the West, Mexico today announced that it was “righting a historic wrong” and reclaiming Texas.
“Vladimir Putin has correctly noted that mistakes from long ago can and should be corrected,” said Enrique Sauza, a spokesman for Mexico’s Foreign Ministry. “We look forward to welcoming our brothers back to the nation.”
Texas residents voted overwhelmingly to secede from the United States over the weekend. Some questioned the validity of the referendum, given the heavy presence of Mexican soldiers in the state, but Sauza was dismissive of such concerns, saying that the soldiers were all on vacation, and were wearing their combat fatigues due to unspecified “laundry issues.”
The White House issued a strongly worded statement in which it warned the Mexican government that the US would consider all options in response, “up to and including issuing a strongly worded statement.”
