US, Canada to collaborate on tackling Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, US Justice Dept says

The United States and Canada have agreed to strengthen cross-border law enforcement collaboration to counter Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA), the U.S. Department of Justice said in a statement on Thursday.

INTERPOL Washington Director Jeffrey A. Grimming and National Central Bureau Ottawa Director Marie-Josee Homsy signed a memorandum of cooperation that commits the two countries to take "concrete actions" against the gang, which has become "one of the world's most dangerous transnational criminal organizations," the statement said.
