"The Role of the Navies, Coast Guards, and Naval Authorities in Preventing and Combating Maritime Drug Trafficking"
Maritime transport is an essential pillar of global trade, accounting for approximately 80% of the total volume of goods moved worldwide. More than 50,000 merchant ships transport over 11 billion tons of goods between continents each year, highlighting its strategic importance for international economic flows.
In the Americas, the oceans connect economies and are critical to regional prosperity. Ports in the United States, Latin America, and the Caribbean play a crucial role in global trade, moving essential goods worth trillions of dollars. In recent years, maritime trade in the region has grown significantly, reflecting the growing interdependence between countries and the world.
However, these same trade routes are exploited by criminal networks to traffic drugs, arms, and other illicit activities, posing a serious threat to the security and economic stability of countries in the region. To address this growing challenge, it is essential to strengthen cooperation between the Navies, Coast Guards, and naval authorities.
