Son of former Mexican president says US revoked his visa

On August 14, 2026, Andy López Beltrán, the son of former Mexican president AMLO, said the United States had revoked his visa. Sheinbaum criticized the US over the move, calling it interference in Mexican politics, and said that a visa being taken away is not a reason to open an investigation. O Globo reported that the visas of Mexican politicians had been revoked.

He said not visiting the United States causes him no problem. Bloomberg wrote that the case put Sheinbaum in a bind, and the Wall Street Journal said it strained ties.
