Answer:

The correct answer is C. It was a Colombian cartel that controlled the cocaine trade with North America in the 1970s and 1980s.

Step-by-step explanation:

C is correct answer because the cartel itself was created in Colombian city of Medellin. It didn't only controlled only the drug trade, but it was also regarded as a terrorist organization. It was led by Pablo Escobar.

Other options are not correct because they are not connected with the Medellin cartel, that as we have said operated from Colombia.
