Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said he had asked officials in early 2020 to help the sisters of famous Mexican drug lord Joaquin Guzman, better known as "El Chapo", to arrange a meeting at the US Embassy in order to request visas to enter the United States.

 

And the Bloomberg News Agency quoted President Obrador, also known as "Amlo" - according to his initials - as saying at a press conference yesterday, Thursday, that he did not know whether they eventually obtained the visas.

 

It is noteworthy that the Mexican president had met El Chapo's mother on March 30 and pledged to help her see her son.

 

Mexico extradited El Chapo to the United States in 2016, and he is now in a maximum security prison in the western state of Colorado.

 

In 2019, the United States sentenced "El Chapo" - who is considered the most powerful drug trafficker in the world - to life imprisonment, after he transported to the country at least 1,200 tons of cocaine during a quarter of a century, but his gang still continues to transport the bulk of the drug US intervention.
