Bukele (translated):
We have reached a new record in the fight against international drug trafficking.
Our National Navy intercepted, 1,150 nautical miles (2,130 km) off our coast, a vessel manned by three Ecuadorian drug traffickers, who were transporting 1,795 kilos of cocaine, valued at more than $44.8 million USD.
On the high seas alone, during 2024 and so far in 2025, we have seized 39 tons of drugs, with a value exceeding $977 million USD.
A resounding blow to international drug trafficking.
We will continue fighting drug trafficking, even if some want to avoid it.
