Central America a hotspot of criminal instability
law enforcement agencies, but the homicide rate there - 14 for every 100,000 residents - is miniscule when compared to the murder statistics in the Northern Triangle, where per-capita killings are four times higher and rising.
In El Salvador, arguably the most violent country in Central America,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], homicides jumped 37 percent last year, to 71 murders per 100,000 residents, as rival gangs fight for territory and trafficking routes.
During his Pentagon briefing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Air Force General Douglas M. Southern Command, said the northern triangle formed by Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras is possibly the most violent place on Earth today. numbers, was 14 per 100,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],000,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he said. "In Honduras last year, it was 77 per 100,000. In El Salvador, it was 71 per 100,000."
Fraser did not mention Mexico,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but most Americans are aware of the enormous problems the Mexican government faces with virtually open warfare inflicting death and destruction especially in northern Mexico, said Garamone.
The region has some very capable militaries, the general said,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], noting that El Salvador sent troops to Iraq that American partners rated among the best in that battle. But the governments of the region are overmatched, he added.
"If you look at the transnational criminal organizations, it's a well-financed, capable capacity -- an enterprise, if you will," he said. "Our estimates are anywhere from, on an annual basis, on a global basis,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the transnational criminal organizations bring in [$300 billion] to $400 billion a year. That's a significant number when you put it against the capacities of the governments that we're talking about."
One example of the technology these criminal organizations use is self-propelled, fully submersible vessels. These subs typically are 100 feet long,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], manned by a crew of four, and they can carry 10 tons of cocaine. Southern Command helps this effort, Fraser said.
"Because of the concern from a law enforcement standpoint -- and I'll use El Salvador as an example,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the president, to address this issue, has asked and brought the military in to support law enforcement, very much in the same manner that we talk about within the United States," the general said. But almost half of the military of El Salvador is working to address the violence. law enforcement agencies and others to address this issue, Fraser said. Southcom personnel are part of the solution, but not the entire solution,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he added.
"It's much more complex than that," Fraser said. "And we have to address it, in my mind, on a regional basis, and not just on a country-by-country basis." Toward that end, he said, the Central American Regional Security Initiative and the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative are aimed at improving the ways countries work together,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], helping to empower the law enforcement and judicial systems.
"It's a multi-pronged effort,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Fraser added.
But the foundation for these initiatives is building and sustaining military-to-military relations with partner militaries in the region, the general said.
"We engage with our partners . to build that security capacity," Fraser said. "Our efforts include military-to-military engagements, exercises, training [and] subject-matter expert exchanges wherever we can,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to help build capacity within our military partners."
Another important Southcom mission is to be prepared to respond in the event of natural or man-made catastrophes. The earthquake in Haiti in January 2010 was one example, and a magnitude 8.8 earthquake struck Chile last year, Fraser noted. In addition,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he served as director of public safety at a New Jersey university and director of security for several major organizations. He's also served on the National Drug Task Force and trained police and security officers throughout the country. Kouri writes for many police and security magazines including Chief of Police, Police Times,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], The Narc Officer and others. Kouri appears regularly as on-air commentator for over 100 TV and radio news and talk shows including Fox News Channel, Oprah, McLaughlin Report, CNN Headline News, MTV, etc..
