President Trump Unveils New Cartel Coalition and Operation
By The Blog Source
On March 7, 2026, at the inaugural Shield of the Americas Summit in Doral, Florida, President Trump announced a major escalation in the regional fight against organized crime. The centerpieces of this new strategy are a multilateral military alliance and a formal presidential directive aimed at treating cartels as military targets.
The Americas Counter Cartel Coalition
The President unveiled the Americas Counter Cartel Coalition, a military partnership involving the United States and 17 partner nations. The coalition is designed to move beyond traditional law enforcement methods, instead utilizing "lethal military force" to dismantle criminal networks. Participating leaders include prominent figures from Argentina, El Salvador, and Ecuador, all united under a shared commitment to regional security and the rule of law.
Operation Southern Spear
President Trump highlighted the early successes of Operation Southern Spear, a U.S.-led campaign that has focused on maritime interdiction. According to the President, the operation has already resulted in a 96% decrease in drugs entering the U.S. by sea. The campaign involves high-level coordination between the Department of War, the Coast Guard, and international partners to block smuggling routes and seize vessels tied to designated terrorist organizations.

Directs allies to strip these groups of territory, financing, and logistical support.
Authorizes the U.S. to train and mobilize partner-nation militaries to create a unified regional fighting force.
