Do most drugs in the US come from Venezuela?

Asked 2 days ago

Answer

Most drugs in the US do not come from Venezuela. UN data and reports confirm that Colombia, Ecuador, and Panama are the main maritime suppliers, while Venezuela serves primarily as a transit country and ranks sixth in regional drug seizures. The majority of fentanyl, a major cause of US overdose deaths, originates from Mexico and China, not South America.
