Mexican military seizure of American company's property raises trade concerns for Biden administration.

The Biden administration expressed concern over the Mexican military's seizure of an American company's property in Mexico, warning of potential negative impacts on trade and investment certainty within Mexico. Vulcan Materials, the largest producer of construction aggregates in the U.S., said the seizure was likely due to the breakdown of contract negotiations with CEMEX and ongoing tensions with the Mexican government over its mining operations. U.S. government officials, including Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., have criticized President Biden's failure to address Mexico's aggression towards Vulcan.
