US declares drug cartels terrorist organizations
2025-02-19 16:55:20 / BOTA
The United States has officially declared several drug cartels, including Tren de Aragua and the Sinaloa cartel, as global terrorist organizations.
This move, described in a Federal Register notice, underscores the significant threat these groups pose to US national security, foreign policy, and economic interests.
The appointment comes in the wake of an executive order issued by Republican President Donald Trump shortly after he took office on January 20.
The executive order asked officials to assess whether any criminal cartels or transnational gangs should be designated as terrorist groups. Although Trump considered such designations during his presidency from 2017 to 2021, he chose not to implement any.
Upon taking office, President Trump also instructed senior officials to prepare to invoke a 1798 wartime law. This law could potentially allow suspected gang members to be deported without trial, further intensifying efforts against these organizations.
