Tulsi Gabbard | Fentanyl Crisis | US Intel Report Links India To Fentanyl Trafficking

The United States has named India, along with China, a "state actor" in enabling direct and indirect supply of precursor chemicals for illicit fentanyl drug production by criminal organisations. Fentanyl, among other synthetic opioids, is the most lethal drug trafficked into the United States. It has claimed the lives of more than 52,000 Americans in 12 months ending in October 2024, according to the Annual Threat Assessment (ATA) of the US intelligence community released on Tuesday. "Transnational criminal organisations or TCOs are often enabled, both directly and indirectly, by state actors, such as China and India, as sources of precursors and equipment for drug traffickers," the report published by the office of Tulsi Gabbard, US Director of National Intelligence (DNI), said. "China remains the primary source country for illicit fentanyl precursor chemicals and pill pressing equipment, followed by India," it added. Notably, it is the first time the US has placed India on the same level as China in connection with the supply of precursor chemicals used by drug cartels to manufacture opioids like fentanyl. Last year's report mentioned India as just one of several countries from where the Mexican groups were sourcing chemicals to a "lesser extent". It had identified China as the primary supplier. #TulsiGabbard #FentanylCrisis #DonaldTrump #USDrugWar #TheNewsWithNDTV #NDTVPodcast About NDTV (English news channel): NDTV is India's Most-Trusted News Broadcaster with the latest updates in news, sports, entertainment and much more from within India and around the world.
