China tightens fentanyl precursor controls after FBI director visit, Patel says

China has announced it will tighten controls on chemicals used to manufacture fentanyl, a move highlighted by FBI Director Kash Patel during his visit. This decision is seen as a crucial step in combating global drug trafficking, addressing the ongoing crisis related to fentanyl production and distribution. The tightening of these controls aims to reduce the availability of precursors that contribute to the illicit drug trade, which has significant public health implications worldwide.
