L’exemple de Marc Fievet, AKA NS 55 en est un des meilleurs exemples où l’on constate le refus d’assurer des engagements pris par les dirigeants […]

Nairobi, Kenya, 21 March 2025
Regarding the news about an alleged Mexican cartel operating in Kenya the Embassy of Mexico offers the following deemed to be of public interest:
Since the beginning of the current administration the Government of Mexico has worked on and achieved results in security matters. Some of those results are the following:
• Seizure of 6,998 firearms, 75% of which come from the United States.
• Seizure of 121.4 tons of drugs, including 1,260 kilograms of fentanyl and 1,332,126 fentanyl pills.
• Dismantling of 329 clandestine methamphetamine laboratories.
• Seizure of a record 26.4 tons of cocaine in maritime operations.
• 13,858 people have been detained for high-impact crimes.
• Recently extradited 29 individuals charged with serious crimes related to violence and drug trafficking to the United States, enhancing security for both countries.
This has reduced intentional homicides by 15% in our country between October 2024 and February 2025.
In the case of fentanyl trafficking, according to data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) itself, U.S. seizures of fentanyl originating in Mexico fell by 50% from October 2024 to January 2025.
CBP data from 2024 published by the Cato Institute in Washington shows that 80 percent of those detained at U.S. ports of entry for fentanyl trafficking between 2019 and 2024 were American citizens. Even the U.S. Sentencing Commission reports that 81.9% of those prosecuted for drug trafficking are American.
In addition, on January 8, the U.S. Department of Justice recognized the serious problem of arms trafficking from the United States to Mexico, with 74% of high-powered weapons seized in Mexico illegally coming from the U.S.
In regard to the alleged involvement of a Mexican national in criminal activities in Kenya the Embassy cannot comment on an ongoing trial. However, within the framework on the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations, of which both Mexico and Kenya are part, the Embassy keeps providing the requested consular assistance.

Cocaine, corruption and bribes
After seizure in Hamburg of 16 tonnes of high-purity powder, state attorney is accused of being on payroll of gang he was supposed to be prosecuting.
Between 2018 and 2023 cocaine seizures rose by 750%, marking out Germany as another major European hub in the ever-expanding global trade. But the influx is not just ramping up addiction, it is also fuelling corruption in a country perceived as being one of the least corrupt in the world.
“We are seeing an infiltration of the port infrastructure in Hamburg, bribing of police officers in exchange for information and lately a state attorney awaiting trial for [allegedly] leaking information to a cocaine trafficking network,” said Daniel Brombacher, who runs the Europe bureau at the Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime.
