Costa Rica's President Open to US Ground Operations
Costa Rican President Laura Fernández welcomed the possibility of American ground operations on her country's territory to combat crime, considering that they could help reduce drug trafficking and terrorism, despite the absence of concrete plans at the moment which would require legislative approval. These remarks come amid increasing rates of violence and crime in the country, with a murder rate of 17.2 per 100,000 people in 2023, and a 14% decrease in the first half of 2026 compared to the same period of the previous year. Costa Rica is cooperating with the United States on security matters such as joint naval patrols.
