The Sinaloa Cartel's expansion into Europe began in the late 1990s and early 2000s as a strategic move to diversify markets and capitalize on the higher profits from European drug sales. Spain served as the primary gateway due to its cultural and geographical ties with Latin America. The cartel forged alliances with local criminal organizations across Europe, including Spanish gangs, the Italian 'Ndrangheta, and Dutch crime groups, to facilitate drug trafficking and distribution.
The cartel uses sophisticated smuggling methods, including maritime routes, air transport, and even submarines, to move large quantities of cocaine into Europe. Once in Europe, the drugs are distributed via land routes, often using the Schengen Area's open borders to avoid detection. The cartel's use of advanced technology, including encrypted communication platforms, has further complicated law enforcement efforts.
The cartel's presence in Europe has led to increased drug-related violence, corruption of public officials, and a public health crisis due to the availability of high-purity cocaine. Despite intensified law enforcement efforts and international cooperation, the cartel continues to expand its operations, with indications of a growing presence in Eastern Europe and the Balkans.
The Sinaloa Cartel's ability to adapt and innovate has made it a formidable force in Europe, and its influence is expected to continue growing in the coming years.
