March 26 (UPI) -- Argentina's government on Thursday formally designated the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, known as CJNG, as a terrorist organization and ordered its inclusion in the country's public registry of individuals and entities linked to terrorism and its financing.
In an official statement, Argentina's presidential office said the decision is based on reports documenting the group's transnational criminal activities and links to other terrorist entities.

The move aligns Argentina with U.S. security policy, which designated the cartel as a terrorist organization in 2025.
