The Texan force moved into the Mexican State of Coahuila, occupying several small towns in the north of the state, eventually consolidating control over the entire municipality of Acuña.

Confederate President Gary Bauer supported Bush, while the Soviet Union under Gennady Yanayev condemned the measure, calling it a "grave impediment on Mexican sovereignty."
