China's role in US fentanyl crisis

The U.S. fentanyl crisis involves the complex dynamics of international drug trade, with China playing a role in the supply chain of fentanyl and its chemical precursors. Efforts to regulate these substances face challenges due to the global nature of their distribution networks. This situation has led to a significant public health issue in the U.S., characterized by an increase in opioid-related overdose deaths. Addressing this crisis requires collaboration across countries to enhance regulatory measures and control the flow of synthetic opioids.
