Mexican authorities arrest the head of the El Ricky cartel after Trump’s tariffs forced Mexico to provide a border – Sarah Carter

Ricardo Gonzalez Sauseda, leader of Mexican cartel del Norster, was arrested in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, on Monday after the Mexican president agreed to work with Trump to secure the border.

The head of the cartel, which also passes by El Ricky and Mando P, according to reports, there are two arrest orders for attempted murder and other accusations. It is also associated with other incidents of extortion, murder and attacks on Mexican federal forces, according to Larendo Morning Times.

Gonzalez Sauseda is also accused of killing two soldiers in an attack, which he organized against the Mexican military in Nuevo Laredo.

The Navy and the National Guard of Mexico, the Prosecutor’s Office and the Ministry of Security and Protection of Citizens assisted in the operation.

After his arrest, the violence broke out on the streets of Nuevo Laredo, with numerous shootings and highways blocked.

Per Laredo Morning Times:

“The US Consulate Nuevo Laredo has received reports of numerous shootings across the city of Nuevo Laredo. The US government staff is advised to shelter in place. “

The Gateway Pundit announced on Monday that Mexican President Claudia Shainbaum agreed to send 10,000 Mexican soldiers to the border in exchange for a temporary pause at the tariffs less than 48 hours after President Trump imposed tariffs on the country.

Similarly, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau later agreed to implement a $ 1.3 billion border plan to strengthen border security. He promised “new chopers, technology and staff, improved coordination with our American partners and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl.”

President Trump pauses a one -month pause on the tariffs against the two countries while negotiating an agreement. He is expected to return the tariffs to his place if they do not agree with his terms to stop the flow of fentanyl and illegal aliens in the United States.

President Trump has imposed a long -awaited 25% tariffs for Mexico and Canada and 10% tariffs for China on Saturday.

When the tariffs are dropped, within 24 hours, the Canadian dollar value has reached a record low, which has not been seen since 2003, and Mexico’s peso also dropped by 2%.

Mexico has already arrested terrorists in his country to avoid President Trump’s tariffs.
