Mexico extradited 29 alleged drug traffickers to the United States, including Rafael Caro Quintero, a key figure desired for the killing of a DEA agent in 1985. This move comes just before the Trump administration is set to impose economic sanctions on Mexico for failing to curb the narcotics flow over the border. The extradited included members of the Zetas cartel, indicating Mexico's urgency to showcase cooperation in anti-drug efforts, especially to avert potential tariffs that could impact its economy significantly.
The extradition of 29 alleged drug traffickers, including Rafael Caro Quintero, comes as Mexico aims to avoid significant tariffs imposed by the Trump administration.
