The Homeland Security Task Force (HSTF) and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) partnered on investigations that led to the sanctions by OFAC. The Treasury Department stated, "These sanctions were further coordinated with the Government of Mexico's financial intelligence unit, the Unidad de Inteligencia Financiera." "As President Trump has made clear, this Administration will not allow narco-terrorists to flood our borders with poison," said Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. "Treasury will continue to target terrorist cartels and their fentanyl trafficking networks to protect our communities and Keep America Safe." |
