Chaos in Mexico: Ioan Grillo on Los Chapitos Aftermath in Sinaloa and with the Cartels

Описание: Yesterday Mexican authorities captured Sinaloa Cartel leader and son of El Chapo Ovidio Guzmán, in the city of Culiacan. Sicarios reacted by erecting roadblocks, terrorising civilians and killing cops, turning Culiacan into a war zone.

Some have rejected the news as a cynical PR coup for Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, ahead of a visit by Joe Biden and Justin Trudeau. But as season narco reporter and author Ioan Grillo tells us, there’s far more to the dramatic episode—and it will have immediate effects on Mexico’s massive cartel landscape.
