SAN DIEGO — Mexico’s federal attorney general called for a hemispheric battle against drugs that targets poverty and addiction, arguing that focusing on beating cartels in Mexico will only push the problem elsewhere.
Speaking at The Associated Press’ annual meeting Monday, Eduardo Medina-Mora said Mexico inherited the drug problem after the U.S. successfully shut down the Caribbean cocaine route in the 1980s, forcing powerful Colombian cartels to turn to their Mexican counterparts.
