Paraguay makes unexpected move that could affect US anti-drug operations

Paraguayʼs drug-control department made a game-changing choice to stop working with US teams - a move thats going to shake-up crime fighting in the region where cocaine moving has gotten bigger

The news went to DEA offices this week and changes kick-in sometime in 2025 (which isnt making US officials happy). This team-up ending puts lots of big cases in trouble: they were after some real heavy-hitters in the drug world

The biggest hit might be tracking down Sebastian Marset - hes quite the interesting character. This high-level dealer didnt just run drugs; he got deep into pro soccer: buying teams and even putting himself on the field to play (which shows how far drug money goes in South American sports)

The split between Paraguay and US drug teams comes at a not-so-great time; with more cocaine moving through the country than ever before - making it a key spot for north-bound shipments. The whole situation means both countries will need to figure out new ways to deal with cross-border crime stuff
