May 20 (UPI) -- Argentina and the United States this week launched a new maritime cooperation alliance in the South Atlantic to combat drug trafficking and other maritime threats, but political, union and nationalist sectors warned about a possible loss of sovereignty.
The U.S. Southern Command and the U.S. Embassy in Buenos Aires announced the pact under the "Protecting Global Commons Program," an initiative aimed at strengthening maritime surveillance and security in Argentine waters over the next five years.
Más fuertes juntos. Más seguros juntos.
Estados Unidos y Argentina están lanzando el Protecting Global Commons Program para fortalecer la seguridad marítima en el Atlántico Sur.
