- On June 24, 2025, U.S. authorities in Houston, Texas, announced sanctions by the Treasury Department and criminal charges by the Justice Department against Giovanni Vicente Mosquera Serrano, a top figure in the Venezuelan criminal organization Tren de Aragua .
- The actions follow TdA's designation as a foreign terrorist organization on February 20, 2024, due to its involvement in drug trafficking, extortion, and violent crimes across the Americas.
- Mosquera Serrano allegedly oversees TdA's criminal operations spanning Colombia, Central America, and the U.S., and produced about 29 kilograms of cocaine in Colombia between May 2024 and March 2025.
- The Justice Department indicted him and his associate Jose Enrique Martinez Flores on five charges, including conspiracy to provide material support to a terrorist group and international cocaine trafficking, while the State Department has set a reward reaching $3 million for tips that lead to his arrest.
- These measures freeze Mosquera Serrano’s U.S. assets, restrict U.S. transactions with him, and reflect a federal initiative to dismantle transnational criminal groups threatening American security.
