A confrontation between hired killers yesterday afternoon in Juarez resulted in three deaths. Nothing particularly newsworthy there. But the significant issue is that now Mexico's toll of deaths linked to organized crime has reached four thousand so far this year, a historic record. The last one thousand deaths have taken place in 48 days. The first one thousand deaths of the year took place in 114 days, the next one thousand in 72. But seventy days later, it reached 3 thousand.

- In a meeting between Mexican President Felipe Calderón and Cuban Chancellor Felipe Pérez Roca, both countries jointly condemned US policies stating, "the US migratory policy toward Cuba stimulates illegal migration and illicit traffic of people and obstructs efforts to effectively combat criminal organizations that profit from those offenses. In the official statement, they rejected "the imposition of coercive unilateral measures and of extraterritorial laws such as the blockade imposed by the US against Cuba and the Helms Burton law that also establishes restrictions and encumbrances on Mexican businesses."
