Colombia to open South America Shield office
The elected Colombian president, Abelardo De La Espría, announced the opening of a "Pacific Defense" office in Medellín, a coalition of Latin American countries allied with the United States to combat drug trafficking militarily. This move comes as part of Washington's efforts to increase pressure on the drug trade, despite Colombia's previous leftist government not joining the alliance, and countries like Mexico and Brazil refusing to participate. Medellín is historically considered a stronghold of drug trafficking and is famously known as the hometown of cartel leader Pablo Escobar.
