While it would be incorrect to say that the US is doing nothing to combat drug trafficking and corruption in Central America, Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton goes to the other extreme in saying that the US is doing "everything we can."
The U.S. government has pledged $165 million to a project known as the Central American Regional Security Initiative, according to the State Department.
In August, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the U.S. was committed to promoting security in Central America.
"We are doing everything we can in the fight against corruption and impunity, in providing the equipment and the support that law enforcement and the military require and helping to build civil society to stand against the scourge of drug trafficking," she said at a meeting of Central American leaders.
Seriously, it sounds like a campaign slogan.
