The death of 9 americans in a Cartel Ambush earlier this month sparked widespread outrage for the victims 3 women 6 children were traveling through a remote area in northern mexico when they went to tact jule u. S. Mexican citizens the family the labatt ins demanded the white house days ignorant mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations youre going to do a telephone interview with a right wing talk host President Donald Trump said that process is underway ive been working on that for the last 90 days you know designation is not that easy ill go through a process. Mexicos drug cartels are huge operations we control large chunks of the country and theyre involved in Drug Trafficking assassinations kidnapping and political corruption being designated a terrorist organization by america means it becomes illegal for anyone to knowingly support the groups if banks realize they handle any cartel funds they must block the money under and form the government a new members are banned from entering the u. S. And so taking this move while it might benefit the president in the United States and it might make people feel righteous and justified in satisfied here that were taking stronger steps alternately may make it harder to do business with the mexicans and we need to be a team with them in order to get this Problem Solved mexicos policy on fighting the cartels has changed under the new president and this man well the door has been in Office Almost exactly a year he believes in hugs not bullets and that social conditions need to change to make the cartels less economically powerful a good bit as young see cooperation yes in interventionism no but one expert says if the u. S. President follows through on his threat to clear out the cartels and uses military action there could be significant mexican backlash with this they do a side he can stay in mexico on organize who are one attack or something against the mexican cartels in mexico soil and this is the problem because d mexico is a nationalist in that because of their country and thats it any difference of that the Mexican Government has had donald trump make threats like this before remember when he threatened to close down the entire border and then backed away they will of course start making plans but theyre hoping that the white house will back away from what many people here see as a dangerous and dramatic overreaction alan fischer aljazeera mexico city.
