Mexican advice to Argentine high official

Posted by Marc Van Riper - December 1, 2008 at 3:15 pm

Hello readers:

A recent opinion piece in La Nacion (Buenos Aires) makes a short comment on a piece of advice a high level Mexican government official offered to a high level Argentine government official. The note was prompted by a logistics phenomenon now developing between Argentina and Mexico. The root is the price differential between the price of ephedrine (efedrina) in Argentina, and its price in Mexico. There is a significant difference in the price per kilo between both locations. It appears the Sinaloa cartel is already establishing a presence in Argentina, to acquire shipments of efedrina for its operations in Mexico. The link to the op ed piece is offered below. After about 30 days, the article will be available only to registered users of La Nacion.
