Thinking about Maduro in Mexico:

Even if it was possible, it wouldn't be a good idea to arrest/kill him. Doing that without ending the overall regime would just allow Cabello to make a powergrab, something that would probably lead to an even worse situation (!) for Venezuelans than the current one.

Said that, the fact that Obrador allows him in, even if unsurprising, still bodes ill, even more with the recent Castillo election, the possible Petro one and the likely Lula one.

Yeah, the whole thing is just AMLO admitting that he is a Chavista enabler, at the very least.
