Latin American gangs expand cocaine operations across 16 European countries
SMESRC LO·SK·3 days ago
The Trump administration's bombing campaign against cocaine trafficking fast boats is impacting the global drug trade, but not as intended: cocaine is becoming cheaper in the US and Europe. This suggests the campaign is disrupting some supply routes while failing to reduce overall supply, possibly due to substitution or increased production elsewhere. The development indicates a policy reversal or unintended consequence, with implications for drug policy and regional stability.
