Trump Administration Focusing on Threat Posed by Mexican Drug Cartels
|
The Trump administration has promised to crack down on the threat posed by Mexican drug cartels, which are responsible for smuggling and trafficking narcotics and synthetic drugs into the United States, contributing to the deadly fentanyl epidemic which has gripped the country for the past several years.
