Mexico President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) recently held a press conference and defended President Trump.
The President of Mexico stated the United States can’t lecture Mexico about democracy when they are attempting to arrest President Trump
He would go on to say the U.S. cannot lecture the world on human rights either due to Julian Assange being detained.
Here’s the video:

Here’s what Newsweek reported:
Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador on Tuesday defended Donald Trump, saying a potential indictment of the former president could be a move to prevent him from seeking reelection.
“Right now, former President Trump is declaring that they are going to arrest him,” López Obrador, who is also known by his initials AMLO, said during a press conference. “If that were the case…it would be so that his name doesn’t appear on the ballot.”
The leftist president’s support for Trump may seem unlikely, given the latter’s past comments about Mexico, such as insisting that the country pay for construction of a 450-mile wall along the southern border.

Becker News got the scoop too:
Mexico’s President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on Tuesday went on a rant against the United States, condemning the Biden administration for lecturing his government on human rights abuses when its own track record has been abysmal.
The leftwing president also slammed the Biden administration for targeting former U.S. President Donald Trump in a political prosecution that he called a “fabrication.”
“Right now, former President Trump is declaring that they are going to arrest him,” López Obrador, also known by his initials AMLO, said during a press conference. “If that were the case…it would be so that his name doesn’t appear on the ballot.”
QUESTION: "I wanted to ask you about comments by the Prez of Mexico….Just today, (AMLO) suggested the US had blown up the Nord Stream pipeline, suggested the Administration was trying to derail Donald Trump…& then recently he said fentanyl is a US problem, not a MX problem" pic.twitter.com/H2sdImTk9K
