Mexican President's big allegation: "Drug cartels are getting shelter in America"

Mexico City: Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has made serious allegations against America, saying that it is giving shelter to drug cartels. She claimed that not only drugs are going from Mexico to America, but organized criminals are also being given shelter in America, which is promoting drug trafficking and violence.

Increasing tension between America and Mexico over drugs

Mexico has been struggling with the problem of drug trafficking and organized crime for a long time. But this time President Sheinbaum directly targeted America and said that it is wrong to call drug trafficking only a problem of Mexico. He alleged that some organized gangs and mafias present in America are associated with the notorious cartels of Mexico and they are being given protection.

What did the Mexican President say?

President Sheinbaum said in his statement, "We cannot believe that Mexico is the only centre of the drug problem. The truth is that there are many elements in America too who are promoting drug smuggling and providing a safe environment to criminals." He said that when US officials point fingers at Mexico, they should also see what the conditions are for criminals in their own country.

Drug cartels and US connections According to reports, some big drug mafias living in America are directly connected to Mexican cartels. These gangs get the benefit of US law and order, because they have a strong hold there. Experts believe that Mexican cartels have a big hand behind the increasing fentanyl smuggling and cocaine trade in America. But a part of the drug supply chain is also working inside America, to stop which America is not taking any concrete steps. Political tension and US response Tensions between the two countries may increase after this statement of the Mexican President. The US has not yet given any official response on this issue, but earlier also the US administration had promised strict action to stop drug trafficking.

President Joe Biden's government has said many times that they are working with Mexico to stop the "drug war", but the Mexican government feels that there is a need to take strict action against criminals in the US as well.

What will happen next?

After this statement, pressure may increase on the US administration to take strict action against organized criminals and drug mafia in its country. At the same time, Mexico can also intensify the campaign against cartels in its country.

However, this issue is not just of Mexico or America but is related to the problem of drug trafficking and organized crime at the global level. Now it will be interesting to see how America reacts to this and what effect it has on the relations between the two countries.
