Secretary of State Blinken leaves Mexicans baffled after displaying their flag upside down
Fox News
Secretary of State Antony Blinken displayed the Mexican flag upside-down during a virtual meeting with the Mexican foreign minister.
"Great to be 'in' Mexico! The U.S.-Mexico relationship impacts the daily lives of citizens of both countries," the secretary of state wrote on Twitter. "Today I’m discussing our commitment to working with Mexico on COVID-19, promoting trade and investment, and implementing a comprehensive approach to regional migration." Unfortunately, a detail was off with the virtual visit that left online observers baffled — the Mexican flag was flying upside-down. The head of the eagle borne on the Mexican flag is supposed to face upward — the opposite of how the flag was positioned behind Blinken.More Related News
