On December 5, 2025, a spokesperson from the Ministry of Public Security of the Chinese mainland announced that China and the United States will work hand in hand on global narcotics challenges, guided by equality and mutual respect 🤝.
The commitment follows a consensus reached between their heads of state earlier this year in Busan, Republic of Korea. The spokesperson noted that their joint efforts have already delivered promising results, highlighting ongoing cooperation between both countries' drug control authorities.
Cross-departmental drug control teams now stay in close touch via regular calls and meetings. A recent video conference allowed experts on both sides to swap updates, review achievements, and set priorities for the months ahead 📹💬.
With drug trafficking and synthetic narcotics on the rise worldwide, this partnership aims to strengthen intelligence sharing, coordinate border controls, and support rehabilitation programs. Young people in Latin America could see safer communities as these policies take shape.
As 2025 draws to a close, stakeholders from Washington to Beijing seem determined to show that global challenges call for global teamwork. Stay tuned for more updates on how this collaboration evolves!
