US troops may enter Mexico: Trump plans new operation against drug cartels

The administration of US President Donald Trump is planning a new mission in Mexico aimed at combating drug cartels. The operation will involve neutralizing drug laboratories and leaders of criminal groups.

This is reported by NBC News .

According to journalists, preparations for the potential mission have already begun. Discussions are currently ongoing regarding its scope, and a final decision has not yet been made. Sources note that the US military may use drones to strike drug cartel targets and eliminate their leaders.

At the same time, the Donald Trump administration does not plan to publicly announce the operation. The White House reportedly believes that this will avoid diplomatic complications and maintain the element of surprise.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has authorized the US Central Intelligence Agency to increase the number of reconnaissance flights in Mexican airspace, which began during the Joe Biden administration.

Under Sheinbaum’s leadership, Mexico has deployed 10,000 troops to the border with the United States, extradited 55 high-ranking drug cartel members, and reported an increase in fentanyl seizures.

Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid used to make extremely potent drugs that far exceed heroin in toxicity and lethality.

Media sources say the Trump administration is seeking to coordinate with the Mexican government, but the possibility of carrying out the operation without official approval is not ruled out. The planned mission could open a new front in the US campaign against drug cartels in the Western Hemisphere.

Recall that the administration of US President Donald Trump has identified military facilities in Venezuela that, according to it, are used for drug smuggling, and is considering options for air strikes on them .

Earlier, United States President Donald Trump announced his intention to launch a ground operation by the US military in Venezuela . The main goal, he said, is to combat drug trafficking, which, despite the reduction in maritime supplies, remains a significant problem for the United States.
