Holding China and Mexico Accountable for America’s Fentanyl Crisis
America faces a dire threat in the form of the fentanyl crisis, one that is fundamentally different from long-standing U.S. illegal narcotics challenges due to its significant number of U.S. deaths and its direct origins from the CCP. U.S. adversaries are establishing a new avenue of asymmetric warfare against the American people through which they can launch destabilizing actions against the United States. Efforts to hold China and Mexico accountable will be politically and economically costly, but the price will pale in comparison to the toll on American communities and the millions of Americans lives that stand to be lost to fentanyl in the years that come.
