UnexpectedOperationError: US Military Movements Trigger Mexican Sovereignty Alert

$

SUMMARY

WARN: US military activities detected near Mexico, triggering `SovereigntyCheckFailed` and requiring immediate `protocol.assertion()`.

$

DETAILS

========================================

1. Reproduction Steps

A sequence of real-world diplomatic and military actions has led to a critical state within the US_Mexico_BilateralRelations module.

To reproduce the current incident state:

$ systemctl start us-foreign-policy --env=production --force-deploy-unilateral-action
$ geopolitical.system.monitor('easternPacificRegion', { sensitivity: 'HIGH' });
$ observe social.media.feed('mexico');

Note: Previous unilateral action against Venezuela.Maduro dependency likely created a race condition in trust metrics.

// TODO: Implement `StrictBilateralProtocolCheck` before `Dispatch` and `PreNotify`.
// assert(!"Unilateral actions should not proceed without explicit consent.")This exception indicates a fundamental failure in the bilateral communication handshake and a disregard for established sovereignty invariants.
The system, having previously permitted a forcible_extraction operation in Venezuela, appears to have cached an overly permissive authorization token for unilateral_actions.

4. Post-Mortem Notes

  • KNOWN ISSUE: Existing legacy.trust_model with US_Administration component (Trump_2025) has demonstrated inconsistent behavior regarding international protocols.
  • REGRESSION: Public confidence metrics (mx.citizen.sentiment.query) show a significant drop following perceived sovereignty violations, particularly after the Venezuela incident.
  • WORKAROUND: President Sheinbaum's office is attempting to patch critical communication gaps via direct statements and scheduling bilateral meetings.
  • FIXED (temporarily): US government provided written assurance regarding flight paths after an initial omission, addressing a specific symptom rather than the root cause.
  • OPEN TICKET: Investigate the unauthorized landing of US_military_transport_plane and its authorization chain. Priority: High.
  • RISK ASSESSMENT: Continued unilateral_action_flag raises potential for future relations.protocol.deadlock().
