“The cocaine trade is booming, and smugglers have their eyes on a new market” –Business Insider

Business Insider reports on the growing market for illegal drugs in Europe that is being supplied by Latin American Cartels.

  2. That we may be seeing more European assets joining the drug interdiction effort.
  3. More drugs will be shipped on container ships.
