Research focused on the 2006-2018 period when Mexico had declared a “war on drugs,” which provided the backdrop to the government’s decision to purchase the arms.

The guns were sold to the Mexican government. The problem here is the Mexican government's inability to keep its equipment out of cartel hands, not Israel's failure to micromanage a foreign police or military service.

More like unwillingness. Selling arms to a corrupt narcostate like Mexico is the same thing as selling to a convenience store cartels shop at.
