Donald Trump, President of the United States, has placed Afghanistan alongside Bolivia, Myanmar, Colombia, and Venezuela on the list of countries that have failed in combating drug trafficking.
This announcement was reported by international media on September 16th.
Trump emphasized that cocaine production in Colombia has reached historic highs and political leadership is responsible for this failure.
According to U.S. law, the president is required to annually identify countries that have failed to implement anti-drug agreements.
This action is typically aimed at pressuring relevant governments to increase efforts in drug control and demonstrates America’s concern about the drug situation in Afghanistan.
