What happened
In a Daily Signal interview clip carried by the Office of National Drug Control Policy, Director Sara Carter described two expectations she has put to China, as she stated them.
Carter said she expects the supply chain to be clean and has been very direct with China, as President Trump has been, as she put it. She said the United States wants to work cooperatively with its Chinese partners on law-enforcement cooperation, and wants China to stop the export of precursor chemicals that come into Mexico and then infect the supply chain in the United States, as she described the route.
Carter said she was grateful Chinese counterparts have kept meeting with the United States, but did not hide the concern: supply chains are infected with this poison, it is targeting American youth, and, as she put it, the United States will no longer allow its children to be killed by it and will not be quiet about it. She said China knows exactly what she expects — the precursors out of the supply chain — for the security of the world community and the American people, as she stated it.
Why it matters
The clip is the Drug Czar’s public demand on Beijing: precursor control and law-enforcement cooperation as the test of China’s role in the fentanyl crisis.
