[자막뉴스] '마약왕 체포' 숨은 진실?...FBI가 꺼낸 '마약왕 비행기'에 멕시코 발칵 / YTN

In July 2024, Zambada García, known as "El Mayo" and the leader of Mexico's largest drug cartel, the Sinaloa Cartel, was arrested in Texas, USA. At the time, Zambada argued that he had been tricked into boarding the plane by a U.S. operation, but the U.S. denied any involvement. [Ken Salazar / U.S. Ambassador to Mexico (August 2024): No U.S. resources were involved at all. It was not a U.S. aircraft, nor a U.S. pilot, nor were there any of our agents or staff.] Ultimately, Zambada was sentenced to life imprisonment by a U.S. court on charges of trafficking fentanyl, a synthetic drug. [Frank Perez / Zambada's Attorney: I think the outcome was good. He pleaded guilty. He wanted to take responsibility, and he actually did.] However, controversy has resurfaced after two years as the U.S. FBI recently proudly displayed the plane Zambada had flown on. The Mexican government reacted angrily, asking if the U.S. had conducted an independent operation without notifying Mexico at the time. The President even held a press conference in person. [Claudia Sheinbaum / President of Mexico (July 7): If any U.S. government agency participated in this operation, it is a violation of international treaties and the Mexican Constitution.] Since the arrest of Zambada, chaos has continued in Mexico, with thousands killed or missing due to conflicts between drug cartels. However, since the inauguration of the Trump administration, the United States has been putting even greater pressure on the Mexican government. Recently, the conflict between the two countries has worsened further as the U.S. has even brought some Mexican governors to trial on drug-related charges. This is Kim Seon-jung from YTN.
