美国财政部宣布一系列制裁措施及一项新的银行预警,针对墨西哥最强大的犯罪组织哈利斯科州新一代贩毒集团。
美国财政部外国资产控制办公室对两名墨西哥男子及九家公司实施制裁,这些企业涉及运输、金融服务和房地产领域,被指控与该贩毒集团关联的燃油盗窃团伙有关联。该团伙通过盗窃燃油逃避墨西哥税收,每年为贩毒集团创造数千万美元收入。
此外,财政部金融犯罪执法网络部门向金融机构发布预警,指出从美国向墨西哥走私燃油且涉及墨西哥逃税的相关诈骗活动的危险信号。
财政部部长斯科特·贝森特在一份声明中表示:“今日的行动凸显出墨西哥贩毒集团正如何超越传统毒品贩运,为其犯罪组织创收,而这些组织仍在贩运致命毒品,导致美国人死亡。”
美国缉毒局证实,哈利斯科州新一代贩毒集团已在墨西哥32个州中的21个州活动,超过了据称在19个州运营的强大锡那罗亚贩毒集团。去年,特朗普总统将哈利斯科州新一代贩毒集团及其他五个墨西哥贩毒集团列为外国恐怖组织。
近年来,墨西哥当局在得克萨斯州边境各州查获了数百万加仑被盗的柴油、汽油和石油馏分。有组织犯罪团伙破坏输油管道,将燃油转移至加油站,迫使加油站从贩毒集团购买燃油,或直接在街头销售。
美国当局甚至指控哈利斯科州新一代贩毒集团运营自有加油站。

上月,美国联邦大陪审团增加了对该贩毒集团二号人物、绰号“园丁”的指控,控告其贩卖甲基苯丙胺及共谋洗钱。墨西哥贩毒头目奥迪亚斯·弗洛雷斯·席尔瓦于4月27日在墨西哥西部纳亚里特州被捕,此次抓捕行动由墨西哥海军特种部队根据美国情报机构提供的信息开展。
弗洛雷斯·席尔瓦曾被视为在内梅西奥·奥塞格拉·塞万提斯(又名“埃尔门乔”)之后的潜在接班人。“埃尔门乔”于今年2月在一场大规模军事行动中被击毙。“埃尔门乔”被杀后,贩毒集团暴力活动激增,贩毒枪手袭击企业、焚烧车辆、设置路障,造成70多人死亡,其中包括25名国民警卫队队员。
U.S. announces new bank alert targeting powerful Jalisco New Generation Cartel

U.S. Treasury announced a series of sanctions and a new bank alert targeting the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, Mexico’s most powerful criminal enterprise.
Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control imposed sanctions on two Mexican men and nine companies involved in transportation, financial services and real estate, accused of being tied to a cartel-linked fuel theft ring intended to evade Mexican taxes while generating tens of millions of dollars annually for the cartel.
Additionally, Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network arm issued an alert to financial institutions that point out red flags of fuel smuggling from the U.S. into Mexico in schemes involving Mexican tax evasion.
“Today’s action highlights the extent to which Mexico’s cartels are expanding beyond traditional drug trafficking to generate revenue for their criminal organizations, which continue to traffic deadly drugs that kill Americans,” said Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent in a statement.
The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency has acknowledged the New Generation Cartel’s presence in 21 of Mexico’s 32 states, surpassing the powerful Sinaloa Cartel, which is estimated to operate in 19 states. Last year, President Trump designatedthe Jalisco New Generation Cartel and five other Mexican cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.
Mexican authorities have in recent years seized million gallons of stolen diesel, gasoline and petroleum distillates from states bordering Texas. Organized crime taps pipelines and diverts fuel to service stations forced to buy from cartels or sell it directly in the streets.
U.S. authorities have even accused the Jalisco New Generation cartel of operating its own service stations.

Last month, a U.S. federal grand expanded the charges against the cartel’s second-in-command, known as “The Gardener,” accusing him of methamphetamine trafficking and conspiracy to launder money. Mexican drug kingpin Audias Flores Silva wasarrested on April 27in the western state of Nayarit in an operation by Mexican Navy special forces based on information provided by U.S. agencies.
Flores Silva was seen as a possible successor to Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, or”El Mencho,” who was killed in a dramatic military operation in February. The killing of “El Mencho” led to asurge of cartel violencewith a wave of attacks on businesses by cartel gunmen, vehicle burnings and road blockades that killed more than 70 people, including 25 National Guard members.
