Western Hemisphere nations have united under a joint security declaration to strengthen regional efforts against cartels and transnational threats. Signed at the Americas Counter Cartel Conference, the agreement emphasizes expanded cooperation across defense, law enforcement, and intelligence sectors. Participating countries commit to advancing border security, countering narco-terrorism, and protecting critical infrastructure through coordinated, whole-of-government approaches. The declaration also highlights a “Peace through Strength” strategy and the formation of a coalition to address evolving threats. This collaborative framework reinforces shared responsibility for maintaining security, sovereignty, and stability across the region.
