Why has Mexico handed over drug cartel leaders to US? Who are they?

Mexico has handed over 29 drug cartel figures to the United States, including one of the FBI’s most wanted, Rafael Caro Quintero, in what observers say is a “show of compliance” by Mexican authorities. The handover comes just days before 25 percent tariffs on Mexican imports by US President Donald Trump are due to come into effect.

Trump has long taken aim at what he says is Mexico’s failure to control drug cartels. He has referred to them as “quasi-government organisations” in some parts of the country and blames Mexico, in particular, for the flow of highly addictive fentanyl, a synthetic opioid, into the US in recent years.
