Secretary @OHarfuch:

“As part of our security cooperation and coordination with the U.S. government, and guided by four principles—respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity; shared responsibility; mutual respect and trust; and cooperation without subordination—I held a working meeting with Director Terrance Cole (@DEATerryCole), head of @DEAHQ.

During the meeting, which had been scheduled since late October, we reviewed priorities for intelligence sharing on criminal organizations, financial investigations, pending requests for cooperation, and follow-up on extradition matters through the competent authorities.

We agreed on the importance of strengthening investigations into criminal networks that fuel violence, advancing the arrest of high-priority targets for both countries, curbing illicit arms trafficking into Mexico, preventing the flow into our country of proceeds from drug sales intended for criminal organizations, and combating drug trafficking into the United States.

These efforts are part of Mexico’s National Security Strategy and are carried out in accordance with the laws of both countries. Operations on Mexican territory are conducted exclusively by Mexican authorities, within their respective jurisdictions.

As part of Mexico’s Security Cabinet (@GabSeguridadMX), we will continue strengthening interagency coordination and international cooperation to reduce violence, combat impunity, weaken criminal organizations, and protect our people.”

Como parte de la colaboración y coordinación con el Gobierno de Estados Unidos en materia de seguridad, y con base en los cuatro principios de respeto a la soberanía e integridad territorial; responsabilidad compartida; respeto y confianza mutua, y cooperación sin subordinación, sostuve una reunión de trabajo con el Director Terrance Cole, @DEATerryCole, titular de @DEAHQ.

En este encuentro, programado desde finales de octubre, revisamos las prioridades de intercambio de información sobre estructuras delictivas, investigaciones financieras, solicitudes de colaboración pendientes y seguimiento de asuntos de extradición por conducto de las autoridades competentes.

Coincidimos en la importancia de fortalecer las investigaciones contra las redes criminales que generan violencia, avanzar en la detención de objetivos prioritarios para ambas naciones, frenar el tráfico ilícito de armas hacia México e impedir el flujo hacia nuestro país de recursos provenientes de la venta de drogas destinados a las organizaciones criminales, así como combatir el tráfico de drogas hacia Estados Unidos.

Estos trabajos se enmarcan en la Estrategia Nacional de Seguridad y se desarrollan con apego a la legislación de ambos países. Las acciones en territorio mexicano corresponden exclusivamente a las autoridades mexicanas, en el ámbito de sus respectivas competencias.

Cómo parte del Gabinete de Seguridad @GabSeguridadMX , continuaremos fortaleciendo la coordinación interinstitucional y la cooperación internacional para reducir la violencia, combatir la impunidad, debilitar las estructuras criminales y proteger a la población.

Secretary @OHarfuch:

“In Zapopan, Jalisco, an operation led by @SEMAR_mx, through its Naval Special Operations Unit (UNOPES), and @SSPCMexico, with support from the Mexican Army’s Special Forces (@Defensamx1), resulted in the arrest of Rafael “N,” alias “R2,” identified as a major driver of violence and leader of “Los Rs,” a CJNG cell operating in Jalisco and Michoacán. An additional 19 individuals were also arrested.

His location was determined through intelligence efforts by Mexico’s National Intelligence Center (CNI) and information shared by @DEAHQ. He is subject to an outstanding arrest warrant for aggravated homicide issued by the First Criminal Court of Apatzingán, Michoacán, as well as an arrest warrant for extradition to the United States.

This criminal cell is primarily linked to extortion, drug trafficking, homicide, unlawful deprivation of liberty, kidnapping, and attacks against authorities. Its extortion victims include business owners and avocado producers.

An armed confrontation occurred during the operation, in which “R2” was injured and is currently receiving medical attention. This information is preliminary and will be updated as investigations progress.”

We mourn the passing of Dolores Huerta, a towering figure in the history of Mexican Americans and the struggle for civil rights in the United States.

For more than six decades, she fought for the dignity of farmworkers, helped secure better wages and working conditions, and opened doors for generations of Latinos and women to make their voices heard.

Her legacy extends far beyond the labor movement. She helped transform American society through the power of peaceful organizing and civic participation. Her lifelong commitment to justice, equality, and opportunity will continue to inspire generations to come.
