President of Mexico credited with a significant shift toward aggressive cartel enforcement, including major drug seizures (134 metric tons), lab destructions (644), and a reported 22% reduction in violence. Her administration has collaborated with U.S. intelligence and the Trump administration while taking direct action against major cartel leaders like El Mencho, and has seized thousands of firearms while addressing ammunition flow concerns from the United States. Podcasts discuss her policies as a notable departure from previous soft-on-crime approaches and their implications for regional security and U.S.-Mexico cooperation.
