Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum warned that U.S. gunmakers could face new legal action if the Donald Trump administration moves forward with its intention to label local cartels as terrorist groups.
"If they declare these criminal groups as terrorists, then we'll have to expand our U.S. lawsuit," Sheinbaum said at her daily press conference. She went on to detail that a new charge could deem gunmakers as "complicit" of cartels, as the U.S. Justice Department recognized that almost three quarters of all weapons used by criminal groups in the country come from across the border.
