EEUU golpea las finanzas de los cárteles y endurece sanciones a las redes del crimen organizado

On September 21, the United States government announced a strategic escalation in its efforts to dismantle the financial infrastructure of organized crime syndicates. Ambassador Ronald Johnson detailed the implementation of new, intensified sanctions targeting the networks responsible for laundering money, concealing illicit profits, and financing criminal operations.

The initiative utilizes the authority of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) to strike at the economic foundations of cartels. By focusing on the financial conduits that sustain these groups, the U.S. aims to disrupt the operational capacity of organized crime organizations through targeted regulatory and financial pressure.
