Continuation of U.S. Drug Interdiction Assistance
to the Government of Colombia
Memorandum for the Secretary of State [and] the
Secretary of Defense
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States, and
pursuant to the authority vested in me by section 1012
of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 1995, as amended (22 U.S.C. 2291-4), I hereby
certify, with respect to Colombia, that: (1)
interdiction of aircraft reasonably suspected to be
primarily engaged in illicit drug trafficking in that
country's airspace is necessary, because of the
extraordinary threat posed by illicit drug trafficking
to the national security of that country; and (2)
Colombia has appropriate procedures in place to protect
against innocent loss of life in the air and on the
ground in connection with such interdiction, which
includes effective means to identify and warn an
aircraft before the use of force is directed against
the aircraft.
