“Britain has suspended the sharing of intelligence with the US on suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean amid concerns information supplied may be used to engage in lethal military strikes by American forces…The UK, which retains oversight on several island territories in the Caribbean, has long shared intelligence with the US about the movements of suspect vessels traveling from Latin America, so they can be seized by the US Coast Guard.”

Another report of the UK suspending information sharing with the US.
In addition it reports Colombia has suspended information sharing with the US. That probably significantly impacts USCG operations.
Canada is also trying to distance itself from the kinetic attacks while continuing to cooperate with the Coast Guard.
Eventually this will screw up enough American’s vacation plans so as to influence a change in policy, one way or another.
