- It is reported that the cartel recruited many individuals from Bosnia and Herzegovina and neighboring countries to establish businesses in the Netherlands, Slovenia, Spain, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, to launder the proceeds of its billion-dollar drug trafficking operations.

China is subsidising global fentanyl supply, says report by US congressional panel
scmp.com/news/china/article/3259253/china-subsidising-global-fentanyl-supply-says-report-us-congressional-panel
Quick Glance: China's Subsidization of Fentanyl Production Intensifying Crisis in the U.S.
- A report from a special House committee states that China is fueling the Fentanyl crisis in the U.S. directly by subsidizing the manufacturing of materials used by traffickers outside the country to produce the drug.
- The committee found that the Chinese government provides tax rebates for the production of specific Fentanyl precursors and other synthetic drugs as long as they are sold outside of China.
- The report highlights that China not only subsidizes the manufacturing of precursor chemicals but also thwarts investigations into illegal manufacturers by warning the targets when formal requests for assistance are made by U.S. law enforcement.
- Former Attorney General William Barr recommended that the U.S. should leverage its trade and economic power to push for stronger enforcement from Chinese authorities, and victims should take civil actions against companies and individuals involved in distributing the precursors and synthetic drugs.
