The U.S., Canada And Mexico Seek Well-Being

The recent commitments signed in Ottawa represent important steps toward protecting North America against organized crime, and most certainly against terrorist attacks. Too, Ottawa was important as the business partners in the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) ratified their hopes for trilateral cooperation in order to succeed in improving prosperity alongside security. Mexico, as has been the case for 11 years, continues to be the most vulnerable partner. It has the smallest economy, its inhabitants have a much lower per capita income and it has the largest population living in poverty. Its levels of internal and external security are therefore the most exposed to attack, it has fewer resources for protection of its territory than its northern neighbors, and it would appear that its security institutions are being outstripped by organized crime. One of the commitments made by Mexico’s new Secretary of Government, Carlos Abascal, is to redouble efforts in the fight against organized crime, especially since members of those criminal organizations are threats to become mercenaries of terrorism. In this case, without question measures for trilateral cooperation must be strengthened to efficiently fight those groups. http://www.mexidata.info/id532.html
