On February 20, 2025, the United States designated eight cartels and transnational criminal organizations (TCOs) as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) and Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs). Since then, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) has already brought three indictments charging individual defendants alleged to be leaders or members of cartels or TCOs with providing material support to these newly-designated FTOs, under 18 U.S.C. § 2339B.
