The American government will officially declare the “foreign terrorist organizations” to declare eight Latin American organized criminal groups that also act in the United States and dealing with drug trade and smuggling migrants.

The Administration of President Donald Trump will apply the “terrorist” label, such as the Groups such as the so-called Islamic state or al-Qaeda for political purposes – not for criminal circles focused on money such as Latin American cartels.

The goal of the measure is to strengthen the possibilities of the US government to fight such groups by increasing the pressure on cartels and everything they now consider to help them. The decision will be published on Thursday in the Federal Register, according to the notice on Wednesday.

The Tramp is 20. January, on the first day of return to the White House, signed the Executive Order, which is the start of the cartel to terrorist organizations, stating that they “represent the national security by one that represents traditional organized crime”.

Mexico fears that the United States will use this label as an excuse to intervene on his territory against the cartel, which was sought by some Republican deputies.

Among the marked organizations are the International Criminal Band MS-13, as well as Mexican gangs Sinaloa cartel, Gulf Kartel, New generation Halisko, Northeast Kartel, New Family Michoakan and United Cartell, as well as Venezuelan Banda Tren de Aragua.

In the notice of the State Secretary, Marco Rubija states that these organizations are “Foreign persons who have committed or attempted to commit … Actions of terrorism that endanger the safety of US citizens or national security, foreign policy or economy“.

On the first day of return to the function last month, Trump declared an emergency on the southern American border and promised to deport “millions and millions” of migrants.

He claimed that these groups direct the huge amounts of dangerous drugs in the United States and are involved in extortion, migrant smuggling and other violent crimes.

Tramp is the security of borders in the center of its presidential campaign 2024.

Sinaloa Kartel – Mexico

The Sinaloa cartel is with its various incarnations the oldest criminal group in Mexico – dates from the 1970s. It is a criminal conglomerate, which brings together different groups, based in the mountains of the same name to the state in the northwest of Mexico. Keeps solid control over the western part of the American-Mexican border.

Sinaloa smugglers all types of drugs across continents using ships, planes, migrants and cross-border tunnels. It is considered that all criminal organizations are mostly affected by corruption in Mexico.

One of his most older work in recent years is the production of synthetic opioids of Fentanila, which is considered to cause tens of thousands of death overdose in the United States each year. Sinaloa imports the necessary chemicals from China, drug products and smugglers are across the border.

Kartel of the new generation Halisko – Mexico

The creepy discovery of thirty rambled bodies of Veracruses 2011 was announced by the arrival of “Zeta Kombi”, who soon established the new generation of the Halisko, a hyper-violent group that spread through some kind of franchise with local gangs.

Halisko, named on the western Central Mexican state in which he was, aggressively attacked Mexican authorities, including military helicopters, using drones for throwing explosives and improvised explosive devices. He is even trying spectacular assassination on the then chief of the police city of Mexico in the center of the capital.

The US Drug Assembly (DEA) is estimated that Halisco distributes tons of cocaine, metamphetamine and fentanila in all 50 federal states.

Gulf cartel and northeastern cartel – Mexico

Both of these cartels act along the east end of the border between the United States and Mexico, transferring drugs, immigrants, weapons and money over the most directory by Central and South America.

The Gulay’s cartel has a long history in Mexico, but in recent years, the frequent conflicts of the fractions encouraged. In late 1990s, he recruited members of the Mexican army to form a frightening element known as a woman who eventually shared and became an independent drug trafficking organization.

The northeastern cartel is the rest of the son-in-law.

The northeastern cartel kept the relatively small part of what was once ruled by ruthless violence. Their base is Nuevo Laredo, the busiest commercial port on the American-Mexican border.

New family Michoakan and United Cartels – Mexico

These local organized criminal groups, which operate in West Central Mexico, produce synthetic drugs, but they cause concerns in the United States because of something else: avocado.

Security Analyst David Sucedo points out that the Michoakan state exports 2.8 billion dollars avocado, which are threatening local criminal groups. American inspectors working in michaacan and check pests on several occasions were obese these groups, which control production and, somewhat, the price of avocado through extortion and threats of growers.

Tren de Aragua – Venezuela

This organized criminal group was created by prison in the central Venezuela more than a decade ago. In recent years, she has spread from Chile to the US, using an exodus about eight million venecules who fled before the political and economic crisis in their country.

Although its origin is in drug trade, the main jobs are smuggling migrants, human trafficking, sexual exploitation and forcible work. Known for extreme violence – by breaking the heads and burying of living victims – caused panic in countries across the hemisphere.

U.S. authorities say that the tran de Aragua has inserted into criminal networks in South America, to wash their income through crypto and now represents a threat in various US cities.

Mara Salvatrucha – Salvador

Also known as MS-13, this violent street gang was mentioned during its first term as a threat that constitutes immigration, similar as now cites Tren de Aragua. The MS-13 was created in Los Angeles in the 1980s in communities that mostly made refugees from the Civil War in Salvador and other immigrants, but increased and involved many US citizens in their ranks.

In the United States, the gang is known for the brutal violence and selling drugs on the street. Deported Salvadors spread the band in Salvador, where he rapidly grew, corrupting local authorities. The gang and its rivals controlled parts of the territory, violently recruiting and extorting the residents.

The gang is seriously weakened in Salvador since President Nastrib Bukela launched a comprehensive attack on her and other street gangs almost three years ago. His government arrested more than 80,000 people at the time due to alleged bonds with gangs, although civil rights groups say that there were few presence procedures.
