Certainly, this is also a reflection of the power and the influence that these cartels have.
This is not entirely unprecedented.
On other occasions, when Mexican authorities managed to land big blows on the leadership of the cartels, they very often retaliated with this.
They called them narco-bloqueos, narco-roadblocks.
Cartel operatives move across the country, apparently in more than 10 states in Mexico,
different parts of the country, blocking key roads, setting vehicles on fire, creating a sensation of chaos to directly confront the authorities to say that they are also dealing with a very powerful organization in Mexico and that they are not going to simply disappear.
That's one of the things that has been said, that even though this is a very important achievement by the Mexican law enforcement authorities, nobody is expecting the cartels to disappear
anytime soon.
They remain extremely powerful.
Probably right now there's already movements within the crime world in Mexico to see who is going to replace El Mencho, and they are going to be continuously influential.
However, Mexican authorities will insist that this is a demonstration that they can also strike back at these cartels.

As you mentioned, it is a first step and an important first step, it would seem like, towards meeting one of the main demands of the Venezuelan opposition.
Of course, they have been denouncing for many years that there are hundreds of political prisoners still being held in Venezuelan jails.
And this certainly seems to be a first move in that direction.
Of course, there is a process that would still need to happen
for this bill to become a law.
There's a period of public consultation and another reading by the national legislature.
So there's still some steps that would need to occur before this actually becomes a law.
