Trump promises strike on cartels

Former President Donald Trump said the U.S. could launch a ground attack on drug cartels in all regions. In his speech, he emphasized that "we know their routes, we know everything about them," and announced readiness for operations to destroy cartel infrastructure. These remarks were made as part of his critique of the current approach to fighting drugs. There has been no official confirmation yet from the U.S. government regarding such actions.

Context

The U.S. has traditionally been involved in fighting drug cartels since the 1980s and has repeatedly announced operations aimed at eliminating them.
