PRIME MINISTER Kamla Persad-Bissessar says TT fully supports the US government's deployment of military assets to destroy terrorist drug cartels operating in the southern region.

Her comments came on the eve of the arrival in southern Caribbean waters of three US naval destroyers and a nuclear submarine.

The deployment would see the arrival of more than 4,000 marines and sailors as part of an exercise to target drug cartels.
