Consulado EU Juárez

Today law enforcement arrested four Sinaloa Cartel-linked defendants – all members of the same family, three of them illegal aliens from Mexico – who are charged in a 29-count federal grand jury indictment alleging they trafficked fentanyl, pound quantities of methamphetamine, and firearms, including so-called “ghost guns” lacking serial numbers. The following defendants were arrested today: • José Luis Salazar-Cruz, 44, a.k.a. “Oso,” of Lancaster, an illegal alien from Mexico; • Alfonso Salazar, 46, a.k.a. “Pirate,” of Lancaster, an illegal alien from Mexico; • José Manuel Salazar, 22, a.k.a. “Lil Oso,” of Lancaster; and • Jorge Humberto Salazar, 43, a.k.a. “Sharky,” of Hesperia; an illegal alien from Mexico. Great work @USAO_LosAngeles, @ATFHQ, @DEAHQ! #OperationTakeBackAmerica 🔗: justice.gov/usao-cdca/pr/4…

Esta semana, el secretario Roberto Velasco (@r_velascoa) recibió en la @SRE_mx al embajador de @USEmbassyMEX, Ronald Johnson (@USAmbMex), para conversar de los distintos temas de la agenda compartida. En este marco, reiteraron el compromiso mutuo por seguir fortaleciendo la cooperación y colaboración sustentados en los principios que guían la relación bilateral para traer bienestar y prosperidad en ambos lados de la frontera.

Last month, Mexican Navy (Marina) sailors aboard the Reformador-class frigate ARM Benito Juárez (POLA 101) conducted a subject matter expert exchange with the visit, board, search, and seizure (VBSS) team aboard the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Gridley (DDG 101) in the Pacific Ocean. As part of Southern Seas 2026, the USS Gridley also conducted a passing exercise with @SEMAR_mx's ARM Benito Juárez during a Mexico-U.S. bilateral maritime engagement. Southern Seas 2026 aims to enhance capabilities, improve interoperability, and strengthen maritime partnerships. This engagement highlights the decades-long partnership between the U.S. and Mexico, built on trust, mutual benefit, and respect for sovereignty. Together, we continue to enhance operational readiness and coordination to address shared maritime challenges. #SouthernSeas, #USSNIMITZ, #CVN68, #SS26, #USSGridley #DEFENSA, #MARINA, #EjércitoMexicano, #RelaciónBilateral, #PaísesAmigos, #ArmadaDeMéxico, #TalentoMexicano, #AdiestramientoMilitar @USFleetForces
