U.S. Security Cooperation with Mexico
The United States leverages foreign assistance and diplomacy with Mexico to reduce the impact of illicit drugs on U.S. communities; dismantle criminal organizations; help Mexico manage migration; and improve the effectiveness of Mexico’s criminal justice to better prevent, investigate, and prosecute crime. U.S.-funded training, equipment, and technical assistance complement Mexico’s own investment in building the capacity of Mexican institutions and personnel to achieve these goals. Because of this collaboration, the shared border is more secure, information sharing more fluid, and Mexico now has more professionally trained officials and state-of-the-art equipment to confront transnational crime. Cooperation between Mexico and the United States has never been more vital in the fight to combat the deadly threat of illicit fentanyl, heroin, and synthetic drugs.
