THE HAGUE – Cooperation between the Dutch Caribbean Coast Guard and United States military remains a cornerstone of efforts to control and allign international drug trafficking rings in the Caribbean.
While answering questions on the Coast Guard’s 2026 operational plan, Dutch Defense Minister Dilan Yeşilgöz-Zegerius (*sister of Corendon Hotel boss) emphasized the organization’s continued focus on intelligence-driven operations and regional partnerships designed to control organized crime and narcotics trafficking.

For decades, the Coast Guard has worked closely with U.S. authorities, including the U.S. Coast Guard, Joint Inter-agency Task Force South (JIATF South) and other American armed security agencies.
Through these partnerships, intelligence is shared, maritime surveillance is coordinated and joint operations are conducted throughout the Caribbean basin. However, about 80% of the cocaine shipped to the consumer market of the USA transits through Ecuador.

Canadian Aircraft, Dutch made patrol vessels and radar systems operating from Curaçao and Aruba frequently contribute to multinational efforts to detect and intercept suspicious opposition vessels transporting narcotics to the USA.
The importance of intelligence gathering is expected to increase further in 2026 as the Coast Guard continues its transition toward a more information-driven operational model.
According to the Dutch government, expanding intelligence capabilities is considered essential to identifying trafficking networks and supporting interdiction operations.
The continued cooperation between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the United States comes at a time when transnational criminal organizations are using increasingly sophisticated methods to move drugs through the Pacific and Caribbean waters.
For Curaçao, the partnership remains particularly significant because of the island’s strategic location and its role as one of the main operational hubs for money laundering and regional maritime security missions.
