The Trump administration announced a barrage of sanctions against the Sinaloa cartel, a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO), in an effort to control the deadly threat posed by Mexican drug cartels. The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) designated six individuals and seven entities involved in a money-laundering network supporting the Sinaloa cartel. The move is part of the administration's continued crackdown on Mexican drug cartels.
