The U.S. has been trying to help for over 6 years now. The current Mexican Pres. is a conservative who has called out an all out Military war on the cartels with the help of the U.S.
The U.S. has helped with training of military personnel and federal police forces. The pentagon has even flown high altitude drones over Mexican skies which has helped to capture high ranking targets.
The cartels are running scared and under siege, this is what is causing so much violence. They are splitting up and fighting among each other for territory.
Some current setbacks and problems include, corruption within the Mexican military and the legislative system
Mexico's lawmakers need to radically change and adopt new strategies to combat existing policies that allow money laundering.
In other words they don't have the strength of the IRS' federal investigators to follow the money trails.
- that is clearly not help from the US. Because they know very well it won't stop it. It will sell arms though to all sides.clearThoughts
- yes there are reports of Mexican cartels setting up fronts here in the U.S. to buy then ship guns in to Mexico.HijoDMaite
