Capacidades de las fuerzas militares de Colombia en la construcción de la seguridad internacional en Centroamérica

Abstract

This reflection stems from the exploration of the development of transnational organized crime in Central America as a result of the so-called “balloon effect”, identifying transnational threats that disrupt security in the region and that have encouraged the creation of an Action Plan between Colombia and States United Security Cooperation. For the execution of this article, in the first place an analysis of the existing criminal organizations in Central America is carried out, secondly the projection of the main objective of the action plan is analyzed and as the participation of its leaders, the Southern Command of the States United and the Colombian Military Forces will achieve compliance, thus identifying the exportable potential and capabilities of the Colombian Military Forces within this triangular cooperation exercise that aims to build the security necessary to counteract these criminal organizations. It also highlights the importance of international cooperation mechanisms in the defense sector, in matters of International Security and how within this perspective the author can recognize and put into practice the exercise of military diplomacy to participate in meetings of high military level, developing analysis activities in strategic planning
