This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. In an effort to confront the challenges posed by criminal violence, in Oct. 2007, the U.S. and Mexico announced the Mérida Initiative, a $1.4 billion counter-narcotics and anticrime assistance package for countries in the region. Collaboration between the U.S. and Mexico has intensified, providing an opportunity to address the mutual threat of drug trafficking and organized crime affecting the region. This report provides information on the status of funding provided under the Mérida Initiative as of Sept. 30, 2009. It describes how much has been appropriated, obligated, and expended. The report also identifies factors affecting the delivery of major equipment, services, and training; and provides a timeline of key events related to the initiative.

"Lauded as "unprecedented" when signed in 2008, the Merida Initiative is a bilateral United States-Mexico effort to combat drug related violence in Mexico. Founded on four strategic pillars 1) disrupt capacity of organized crime to operate, 2) institutionalize capacity to sustain rule of law, 3) create a 21st Century border structure, and 4) build strong and resilient communities, Merida was designed to attack the underlying conditions that offered a permissive environment for drug related crime. However, despite its multi-billion-dollar price tag, what followed is more than a decade of increasing violence in Mexico, and even higher drug trafficking and associated deaths in the United States. In answering where the initiative went wrong, this paper briefly outlines the effectiveness of these pillars, and identifies detracting conditions not addressed in Merida. Finally, three recommendations are offered which provide a manageable way forward for bilateral success."--Abstract.

This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. Crime and violence related to drug trafficking in Mexico and Central America have increased in recent years and pose a threat not only to those areas but to the U.S. as well, particularly along the Southwest border. The Merida Initiative, announced in 2007, provides about $1.6 billion in law enforcement support to Mexico and Central American countries. The Dept. of State (State) manages the Initiative while other U.S. agencies play key roles in implementation. This report examines: (1) the status of Merida program implementation; (2) State's strategy for implementation; and (3) coordination mechanisms in place for Merida. The report reviewed agency documents and conducted fieldwork in Mexico and Central America. Charts and tables.

Increasing violence perpetrated by drug trafficking organisations (DTOs) and other criminal groups is threatening citizen security in Mexico. Mexican DTOs dominate the illicit drug market in the U.S. and are expanding their operations by forming partnerships with U.S. gangs. As a result, some of the drug-related violence in Mexico has spilled over into the United States. On October 22, 2007, the U.S. and Mexico announced the Merida Initiative, a proposed package of U.S. counter-drug and anticrime assistance for Mexico and Central America that would begin in 2008 and last through 2010. This book provides an overview of the funding provided for the Merida Initiative, the status of Merida implementation, and a discussion of some policy issues that Congress may consider as it oversees the Initiative.

This report provides an overview of the funding provided for the Mérida Initiative and related assistance programs in Central America and the Caribbean, the status of Mérida implementation, and a discussion of some policy issues that Congress may consider as it oversees the initiative and related programs. [...] The 111th Congress is likely to continue overseeing how Mérida and related funds have been used, any planned adjustments in the uses of funds appropriated during the FY2008-FY2010 budget cycles, and the degree to which the Obama Administration's new strategies for Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean complement each other and U. S. domestic counterdrug and border security efforts. [...] In response to the Mexican government's request for increased cooperation and assistance, in October 2007 the United States and Mexico proposed the Mérida Initiative, a package of U. S. counterdrug and anticrime assistance to Mexico and Central America. [...] The four primary goals of the Mérida Initiative, as originally conceived, were to (1) break the power and impunity of criminal organizations; (2) assist the Mexican and Central American governments in strengthening border, air, and maritime controls; (3) improve the capacity of justice systems in the region; and (4) curtail gang activity in Mexico and Central America and diminish drug demand in th [...] In the Joint Explanatory Statement to P. L. 111-117, the conferees directed the Secretary of State to submit a report to within 90 days of the enactment of the Act addressing how prior Mérida funds have been used, progress to date, any planned adjustments in the uses of funds, and post-Merida plans.
