Another person familiar with Mexico&#8217;s actions also confirmed the removal on the condition of anonymity because they were unable to discuss sensitive diplomatic negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>The Mexican government confirmed the transfer in a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gob.mx\/sspc\/prensa\/tarjeta-informativa-391650\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">statement<\/a>, saying, &#8220;They were wanted for their links to criminal organizations for drug trafficking, among other crimes.&#8221; \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Mexican government did not disclose the identity of every person who was extradited, but added the transfers were carried out &#8220;under institutional protocols with due respect for their fundamental rights.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Also on the list were two leaders of the Los Zetas cartel, Mexicans <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/miguel-angel-trevino-morales-leader-of-mexicos-zetas-drug-cartel-captured-by-mexican-military\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Miguel Trevi\u00f1o Morales<\/a><\/span> and his brother <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/mexico-arrest-omar-trevino-morales-leader-zetas-drug-cartel\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Omar Trevi\u00f1o Morales<\/a><\/span>, known as Z-40 and Z-42, the official confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>The removal of the drug lords from Mexico coincided with a visit to Washington by Mexico&#8217;s Foreign Minister Juan Ram\u00f3n de la Fuente and other top economic and military officials. The meeting was the latest in ongoing negotiations with the U.S. over trade and security relations, which have radically shifted since President Trump took office.<\/p>\n<p>The transfer comes as top Mexican officials are in Washington, D.C., trying to head off the Trump administration&#8217;s threat of <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-tariff-enacted-february-1-canada-mexico-china\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">imposing 25% tariffs on all Mexican imports<\/a><\/span> next week.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump said Thursday that he intends to move forward with the sanctions, writing on <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/114076153524132682\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Truth Social<\/a> that &#8220;drugs are still pouring into our Country from Mexico and Canada at very high and unacceptable levels.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In exchange for delaying tariffs, Trump had insisted that Mexico crack down on the U.S.-Mexico <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/trump-tariffs-canada-fentanyl-trafficking\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">border, cartels and fentanyl production<\/a><\/span>, despite significant dips in migration and overdoses over the past year. The removals may indicate that negotiations are moving along as the tariff deadline approaches.<\/p>\n<p>Caro Quintero had walked free in 2013 after 28 years in prison when a court overturned his 40-year sentence for the 1985 kidnapping and killing of U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent Enrique &#8220;Kiki&#8221; Camarena. The brutal murder marked a low point in U.S.-Mexico relations.<\/p>\n<p>Caro Quintero, the former leader of the Guadalajara cartel, had since returned to drug trafficking and unleashed bloody turf battles in the northern Mexico border state of Sonora until he was arrested by Mexican forces in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>The removal of the Trevi\u00f1o Morales brothers also marks the end of a long process that began after the capture in 2013 of Miguel Trevi\u00f1o Morales and, two years later, of his brother, Omar. The process wound on for so many years that then-Mexico&#8217;s Attorney General Alejandro Gertz Manero, described the lags as &#8220;truly shameful&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The Trevi\u00f1o Morales family, who American authorities have accused of running the violent northeastern Cartel from prison, have charges pending in the US for participation in a criminal organization, drug trafficking, firearms offenses and money laundering.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \"\/><!-- tags
