AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
One of President Donald Trump’s executive orders labeled Mexican drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. According to experts, this will allow more funding and opportunities to fight such organizations.
There are many ways to deal with cartels using technology, but infiltration also works, though that may put agents at risk.
Cartels are much more fluid than traditional terrorist groups and more difficult to fully destroy.
