Puerto Vallarta (PVDN) - Mexico's drug trade is dominated by the Sinaloa and Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG) cartels, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). The cartels have a strong presence in strategic locations across the country, especially on the northern border, making them key players in drug trafficking.
In its National Drug Threat Assessment 2020, the DEA noted that the Sinaloa cartel, led by Los Chapitos, Ismael El Mayo Zambada, and Aureliano Guzmán, El Guano, controls drug trafficking in 15 of the country's 32 states, primarily in the northwest.
