- Strategic Alliances with Local Groups:
- Mexican cartels, particularly the Sinaloa and Jalisco New Generation Cartels, have formed alliances with Colombian armed groups and drug trafficking organizations (DTOs). These local groups include the National Liberation Army (ELN), remnants of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), and various criminal bands known as "BACRIM" (Bandas Criminales).
- These alliances allow Mexican cartels to secure reliable sources of coca and cocaine. They provide financial support, weapons, and logistical assistance to local groups in exchange for steady supplies of drugs.
- Economic Influence:
- The Mexican cartels inject significant financial resources into the Colombian drug trade. They buy large quantities of cocaine directly from Colombian producers, often paying in advance, which stabilizes the producers' income and reduces their financial risks.
- The cartels also invest in local economies, creating jobs and infrastructure, which fosters local support and loyalty.
- Control of Supply Chains:
- By establishing control over supply chains, from coca cultivation to cocaine production and export, Mexican cartels ensure a seamless flow of drugs. They provide expertise and technology to increase the efficiency of production.
- This control extends to transportation routes, where they use sophisticated logistics networks to move drugs from Colombia to Mexico and then to the United States and other international markets.
- Exploiting Governance and Security Weaknesses:
- Mexican cartels take advantage of weak governance and corruption in Colombia. They bribe officials, law enforcement, and military personnel to secure safe passage and protect their operations.
- In regions where the state’s presence is minimal, cartels fill the power vacuum by providing security and social services to local communities, further entrenching their influence.
- Violence and Intimidation:
- Violence and intimidation are used strategically to eliminate rivals and maintain control. The cartels are known for their brutality, which serves as a deterrent against opposition from other criminal groups or law enforcement.
- However, they also balance this with efforts to avoid excessive violence that could attract unwanted attention from the authorities or international community.
