Statement from Ambassador Daniel García-Peña Jaramillo on the progress of Colombia U.S. joint counter-narcotics efforts





August 12, 2024


The collaboration between Colombia and the United States continues to deliver remarkable achievements in our collective fight against illicit drug trafficking. This partnership has significantly disrupted criminal networks, reflecting our shared commitment to regional and global security.


Through coordinated efforts, our security forces have successfully intercepted substantial amounts of narcotics, thanks to the strategic dismantling of illegal drug processing facilities. This progress reflects the strength and precision of our joint initiatives, demonstrating our dedication to eradicating the drug trade and its harmful impact on our communities.


Our partnership with the United States remains pivotal, reinforcing our mutual objectives and bolstering our resolve to overcome the challenges posed by illicit drug trafficking. 


The recent publication of the U.S. Presidential Determination to continue drug interdiction assistance reaffirms the effectiveness of our cooperation and underscores the importance of maintaining these critical efforts.
