DEA chief calls Argentina a 'model' for region in anti-narco fight

Dea chief praises Argentina's anti-narcotics strategy as a model for the region during a summit. DEA Administrator Terrance Terry Cole commended Argentina's efforts against drug traffickers and terrorists during the 40th International Drug Enforcement Conference (IDEC) in Buenos Aires. Cole, who is co-leading the conference alongside National Security Minister Alejandra Monteoliva, emphasized the DEA's support for Argentina's operations and their joint commitment to combating transnational organized crime.

Monteoliva highlighted the significant role of South America in global cocaine production and the region's struggle against criminal organizations that transcend borders. The conference, co-hosted by President Javier Milei's government and the DEA, aims to strengthen information-sharing, criminal intelligence, and coordination against transnational organized crime.
