The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) has concluded an investigation linking Chinese banks to the laundering of Mexican drug cartel cash. The findings highlight China's deeper involvement in the fentanyl crisis, which has been fueling a deadly overdose epidemic in the United States. Analysts suggest that China is using the cartel drug trade as part of a broader strategy to destabilize American society. President Xi Jinping had previously pledged cooperation to help the U.S. with its fentanyl problem, while his government was allegedly subsidizing and profiting from this drug trade. The relationship between Chinese entities and cartels such as the Sinaloa Cartel and the Jalisco New Generation Cartel has been described as mutually beneficial. Mr. Brown called China’s support for the cartel one of its “nonaggressive attacks” on the U.S.
