This is huge. Cartels have completely changed the landscape in Mexico, the US, and beyond. Perfect example is a place I regularly visit family (Cuernavaca) in just 10 years went from a relatively safe city with countless clubs and social settings to a city where the nightlife has almost completely disappeared.
A personal friend had a bar for less than a year before a cartel started taxing him, prostituting from it, then finally a full on battle between the 2 primary cartels in Cuernavaca took place in the plaza his bar was located. Multiple fatalities and the entire plaza (it is 2 story with roughly 10 businesses) was shut down.
It is encouraging to see this be one of his first directives as so many Americans are dying from cartel drug trafficking and an unknown number of adults and children are sent throughout the region in both the US and Mexico for abuse/sex work.
It always seemed odd to me we can send billions of dollars and spend thousands of lives across the world but leave such an unstable and dangerous environment directly to our south.
I truly hope Mexico benefits from this just as much or more. It’s a beautiful country that’s been corrupted by the drug war and certain private interests
