The president of the United States, Joe Biden, signed a new executive decree in order to modernize the power of sanctions of the Treasury Department to combat drug trafficking. He designated 25 actors and 15 entities in Mexico, Brazil, Colombia and China, of being participants in activities that contributed to drug trafficking, especially fentanyl.

The decree will provide new tools to the treasury to address the changes in the global trade of illicit drugs that, according to Washington, contributed substantially to more than 100 thousand deaths due to the overdose of Americans, in the period of 12 months concluded in April of 2021.

In the case of Mexico, Los Rojos were included, described as a group that split off from the Beltran Leyva cartel, "which in recent years has become one of the most powerful organizations in Mexico."

He also included the United Warriors, from which the Treasury affirms that they collaborate with the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, and shares the same drug transportation networks to the United States.

Previously, the treasury had already included the CJNG, the Sinaloa cartel, specifically Ismael May Zambada and the brothers Iván Guzmán (Chapito), Jesus Guzmán (El Alfredillo). Along with his stepbrother Ovidio Guzmán López (El Ratón). As well as the Beltrán Leyva, among others.
