Even as Mexican-made fentanyl continues to flood into the United States, Mexico's efforts to seize the drug have declined dramatically, according to figures released Tuesday by the Defence Department.
This photo released by Mexico's National Security Commission shows bags of illegal drugs, including 100 pounds of fentanyl, according to authorities, inside a sports utility vehicle after police stopped the car for a missing front licence plate near Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico, Jan. 25, 2018.
While Mexican meth is exported widely to the United States — and also causes huge addiction problems there — unlike fentanyl, a huge amount of meth is also sold inside Mexico. The government of President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador has always had a somewhat equivocal view on Mexico's role in fighting fentanyl, which is largely produced by Mexican cartels using precursor chemicals imported from China and India.
