Treasury’s action highlights CJNG’s exploitation of Mexico’s petroleum and petrochemicals sector, which presents a threat to legitimate U.S. businesses and the U.S. financial system. This action illustrates this Administration’s commitment to dismantling these terrorist organizations and Making America Safe Again. Today’s action is being taken pursuant to the counterterrorism authority, Executive Order (E.O.) 13224, as amended, and E.O. 14059, which targets the international proliferation of illicit drugs and their means of production.
