Earlier today, we tweeted this story out with the wrong link. Here is the correct link: Mexican president to US: Fentanyl is your problem
Andrés Manuel López Obrador: “We do not produce fentanyl, and we do not have consumption of fentanyl” in Mexico.
The Mexican government has acknowledged in the past that fentanyl is produced at labs in Mexico using precursor chemicals imported from China. Fentanyl has been blamed for about 70,000 opioid deaths per year in the United States. There is little debate among U.S. and even Mexican officials that almost all the fentanyl consumed in the United States is produced and processed in Mexico.
“They themselves buy the precursor chemicals, set up laboratories to produce fentanyl and distribute it cities in the United States and sell it,” Saucedo said. “Little by little they have begun to build a monopoly on fentanyl, because the Mexican cartels are present along the whole chain of production and sales.”
