US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said yesterday that an international coalition has been formed against drug cartels and that Trinidad and Tobago is among the countries lending support.

In an immediate response, Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar told the Express she will accept any help to make the country safe again.

She said, “We will work with anyone to fight the scourge of drug, arms and human trafficking. We have had over 10,000 murders in the last 25 years. The country has been drowning in blood. I will accept any help that is available to make our country safe again.”
