White House Demands More Progress on Narcotic Exports from China

1 min read

On Wednesday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “The Record,” Director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy Sara Carter emphasized the need for greater progress from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and other nations in curbing narcotic exports.

Carter stated that while there has been “some progress” from China, the administration is still seeking more. “We need more progress on the part of the CCP and everyone else,” she said. Carter reiterated that the U.S. has been “very clear” with China, India, and other countries about its stance on narcotic exports, warning that the U.S. will no longer tolerate the flow of substances into the Western Hemisphere.

She added, “We have been very clear with China, we’ve been very clear with India, with any nation that is allowing substances, chemical substances, to leave their shores and to come to the Western Hemisphere, that we’re no longer going to tolerate that.” Carter acknowledged that China has made some progress but stressed that more is required to address the ongoing issue of illicit drug trafficking.

Carter also highlighted the administration’s anti-drug efforts, including cooperation with China, and noted that “we need to do more,” but emphasized that the current initiatives are “delivering.” The statement reflects the administration’s continued focus on combating the global narcotics trade and holding international partners accountable for their role in the problem.

The remarks come amid heightened concerns over the impact of illicit drug trafficking on public health and safety in the U.S. and the Western Hemisphere. With the administration pushing for stronger enforcement and international collaboration, the call for more progress from China and other nations underscores the complexity of the issue and the need for sustained diplomatic and regulatory efforts.
