Mexico Pushing for Investigation into The Cartel’s Use of U.S. Military Grade Weapons

Recently, the Mexican government has become increasingly interested in the outstanding quantity of U.S. Military grade weapons that are used by the drug cartels in the region. It has become more aware that non-civilian issued belt-fed machine guns, rocket launchers, and grenades are becoming relevant in many reports concerning the cartels. Around 70% of the weapons used by the organizations are trafficked from the United States, and the Mexican government has previously warned Washington about the danger of this particular issue.
