Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, co-founder of the Sinaloa cartel, was apprehended last month in a significant operation that ended nearly four decades of evading authorities.
The U.S. has portrayed the arrest as a major success in its efforts to dismantle the cartel. However, the incident has sparked concern in Mexico, where officials worry about the potential impact on its relations with the country, allegations of corruption, and the possibility of escalating violence. Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador questioned whether U.S. agents were involved and reaffirmed Mexico's sovereignty, emphasizing the need to investigate the operation.
