🆘 Cartel of the Suns 🪧of the ☀️☀️☀️☀️ Designated by USA 🇺🇸 Global Terrorist Group What role does the Cartel of the Suns in Venezuela play In the global market of lethal drugs? Venezuela acts as a key corridor in the global cocaine & fentanyl market due to its geo-Strategic location: shares an extensive border with Colombia, the main producer of cocaine, and offers direct access to the Caribbean and the Atlantic, facilitating shipments to the US, Europe and Africa. In 2024, estimates from the UN and the DEA indicated that about 24% of the global cocaine (about 500 tons) transited through the country, generating a gross illicit income of approximately $8.236 million. Through ports such as La Guaira and airports controlled by the regime this massive flow positions the criminal economy as a pillar of the Maduro regime, often surpassing legal sources such as declining oil exports . According to the Transparency Venezuela Illicit Economies Index for 2023, at least 15% of the national GDP comes from criminal activities, representing 56% of the total government revenues and 56% of goods exports. This generates state loyalties, fosters systemic corruption and generates a dependency that undermines the economic and political stability of Venezuela.
