Overview
- Mexico’s president said the National Security Council has no operation currently scheduled to move another group of high‑profile detainees to the United States, though she did not rule out future actions.
- She explained that detainees without an active Mexican arrest warrant are typically deported, while those with pending cases follow the formal extradition process.
- Her clarification followed a Wall Street Journal report that officials were discussing a possible third transfer and came after a brief, cordial meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump that produced no specific agreements.
- Authorities have already transferred about 55 alleged traffickers in 2025, including figures tied to Sinaloa factions, CJNG and Los Zetas such as Rafael Caro Quintero and Abigael “El Cuini” González Valencia.
- Previous mass operations were described as large‑scale security missions involving roughly 2,000 special‑forces personnel and multiagency coordination to multiple U.S. cities.
