Voices of Mexico no. 39
Our Voice
Drug trafficking not only knows no boundaries; it also undoubtedly poses the greatest threat for the twenty-first century because, like it or not, the drug trade affects all social layers of most of the world's nations. The mere possibility that this plague could invade our cities and neighborhoods or poison our children is reason enough to consolidate international cooperation as the best way to confront its scope and consequences. Our times demand solutions that go beyond fixing blame.
Both the United States and Mexico have hard-liners. In our country, the most radical argue that the United States, a society with extremely hi gh drug consumption, inevitably becomes a magnet for the drug trade: it is already the world's most important drug market and Mexico is probably the country that most suffers the consequences. Paradoxically, Mexico has no significant narcotics consumption problem today. The U. S. hardliners, on the other hand, argue that the drug trade has become a problem of state in Mexico, fostering enormous corruption on all levels of government and making it the world's main drug distributor to the U.S.
