In order to tackle the realities underlying the epidemic of drug
trafficking now taking place, the U.S. needs to re-assess its
strategies before dissipating billions more on a =91war=92 which many
are
convinced is futile. Firstly, Washington should more intensely
collaborate with Mexican law enforcement agencies in order to
strategize new measures to tackle the U.S. arms trade, which to an
extent propels the dynamics of these drug cartels. Secondly, the U.S. =20
needs to be realistic and open up a dialogue with drug policy experts =20
of various orientations in order to come up with a comprehensive
solution to the co-ordinates of supply and demand; tens of billions of =20
dollars over the years have been spent on supply-side drug control, yet =20
illicit narcotics remain readily available in the U.S and elsewhere.
