InSight Crime’s 2025 Cocaine Seizure Round-Up
InSight Crime’s 2025 Cocaine Seizure Round-Up
As the United States drags the drug war back in time, traffickers are leaping forward, creating new ways of disguising and moving cocaine while weaving sophisticated global networks to reach new markets.
InSight Crime’s 2025 Cocaine Seizure Round-Up reveals a fast-evolving global market. Roughly half of the countries in Latin America and the Caribbean increased their cocaine seizures. The other half saw them fall as trafficking routes shifted in response to new international interdiction strategies.
By moving liquid cocaine to evade modern scanners and using alternative transportation like sailing vessels, criminal organizations are making the global cocaine trade more innovative and geographically diverse than ever. (InSight Crime, USA, 30.04 2026)
