Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum told reporters during her Feb. 14 news conference that Mexico will seek to extend lawsuits against U.S. armories and firearm manufacturers if the Trump administration goes through with its intentions of designating Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations.
"If they label organized crime groups as terrorists, we will have no option than to extend our lawsuits against the U.S., because as the Justice Department has already confessed, 74% of all firearms in possession of drug cartels come from the U.S.," Sheinbaum said. "So, where do the armories stand after the designation?" she added.
