YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhat would you say is a drug trafficker’s biggest dream? What’s the secret to their “success” and why has their influence spread throughout Latin America?
In recent decades, the drug trafficking industry has developed into one of the biggest problems in Latin America. As we all know, this industry’s engine lies in the hundreds of billions of dollars that this business moves each yeah, thanks to which many drug traffickers have managed to create huge fortunes.
However, none of this would’ve been possible without the complicity and collaboration of many senior political officials. Weak institutions are the best breeding ground for drug trafficking.
Very recently, here on VisualPolitik, we talked about how Venezuela was becoming a Narco-State under Nicolas Maduro, Diosdado Cabello and the Soles Cartel.
In this video, we’ll talk about how some of the most famous drug dealers of all time gained their sinister success from the hand of corrupt politicians and how narco-politics has been so present in countries like Colombia, Panama, Nicaragua, Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala, among many others.
